Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Geometric and Engineering Drawing is an established text suitable for GCSE and basic engineering courses. This book aims to cover the whole range of subject matter relevant to introductory courses in technical drawing, with diagrams free of irrelevant information and a large number of examples of an appropriate standard, many of them taken from past examination papers. Topics are introduced in a logical order so that all the necessary background knowledge will already have been presented before any particular problem or technique is discussed. Both first-angle and third-angle projection are used, although third-angle predominates, reflecting its increased acceptance in industry and education.
