Summary: My first and last impression..
Comment: I used this textbook when first learned about chemical engineering in 1992. I was very impressed by this book. The way it explained and exampled is so real and practical. Somehow it has driven my desire to learn more about heat and mass transfer and now here I am a chemical engineer, because of this incredible textbook.

Summary: Absolutely the best book I've used in Chemical Engineering
Comment: This book progresses quite rapidly through the various topics; usually begining with a one dimentional analysis and then proceding to more general treatment. This more general treatment tends to consist of Tensor analysis which is explained to a working extent in an appendix. However, after these general equations have been derived they are only refefered to by there location out of a comprehensive chart. Furthermore, the student is trained to use intuition in their approach to problem solving.
In general the text is incredibly consistant and well written. The examples and problems grow from a relitively basic level to those that can only be solved with advanced engineering Mathematics. The progression builds on itself in a nice way.
Rating: 2
Summary: Poor Book
Comment: If you're an expert on Chemical Engineering, it would be a great book. But then, one wouldn't be buying a book about it. To try and learn from this book is impossible unless you can understand concepts of Chemical Engineering from reading equations. It is simply a big book of deriving equations. No explanations whatsoever.
