Most Useful Engineering Book I Own!

This book explains every physics principle I have heard of clearly and concisely. Topics range from common to truly weird. I ran across 4-D Complex numbers related to motion control systems in satellites (Quaternions) - It is in there. I strongly recommend this book for Engineers (and some pages would make nice wall paper).
