Any practicing Chemical Engineer must have this book
This book is a work horse. It is extremly practical and to the point. Important concepts and design equations are laid out in a concise and easy to read format.

Useful but read the fine print
This reference is highly useful for consulting work. It has its limits. A true rule-of-thumb book for chemical engineers would require volumes so I would say the author did well,…

Hi
I do not have a copy of the current edition, but a year ago I investigated purchasing a previous edition.
