  1. Title: Pocket Ref
    APA Reference: Glover, T. J. (1998). Pocket Ref, 2nd Ed.. Littleton, CO: Sequoia Publishing, Inc.
    Summary: Pocket-sized book with charts, tables, and conversions for everything. Human body composition, circular power saw blades, HP-vs-Torque-vs-RPM in motors, plane figure geometry, gravitational coefficient at the poles, world airport designators, planetary data – they’re all here.
    My Comments: This book sits there as an adjunct to the big ten. This book goes to eleven. I reach for it at least once a week to help with some problem, such as metric to provincial conversions, or wire gauge numbers, or even just the periodic table of elements. The area and zip code lists are a bit out of date, but the fact that an inch is 2.54cm is never going to change. My advice to you is to locate a source for this book, buy one for each desk in the house, then buy one for all your friends.
