Product Description

This text covers the basic techniques and applications of engineering economy for all disciplines in the engineering profession.

The writing style emphasizes brief, crisp coverage of the principle or technique discussed in order to reduce the time taken to present and grasp the essentials.

The objective of the text is to explain and demonstrate the principles and techniques of engineering economic analysis as applied in different fields of engineering. This brief text includes coverage of multiple attribute evaluation for instructors who want to include non-economic dimensions in alternative evaluation and the discussion of risk considerations in the appendix, compared to Blanks comprehensive text, where these topics are discussed in two unique chapters.

This is my first economic class I took in my MS. This book helps a lot to explain the complicated thing and make it easy to understand. The example and the questions are helpful.

I used this book for one of my engineering classes. They have good questions, but their description is kind of confusing. Overall, it's a good textbook to use.

This book does not explain the concepts very well. The questions at the end of each chapter are difficult to follow based on what was covered in the chapter.
