This comprehensive new reference, featuring information extracted from Modern Machine Shop's Handbook for the Metalworking Industries, provides 600 large, easy-to-read pages of text, tables, and diagrams featuring in-depth coverage of all aspects of thread systems, threading methods, and threaded fasteners and their capabilities. Special attention has been given to the wide variety of available machining operations and tools exploited in the creation of threaded fasteners, including unusually detailed coverage of methods used to determine the ideal hole diameter for tapping operations. An important addition to this book that is not contained in the parent Handbook is a discussion on aircraft fasteners (including rivets, which are sometimes substituted for threaded fasteners) that are employed in several industries. Every effort has been made to provide current, useful, and practical knowledge that an engineer, designer, or machinist normally consults in order to select a suitable machining operation and fastener for a particular engineering application.

Since its early days of mass production in the 1850s, the sewing machine has been intricately connected with the global development of capitalism. Andrew Gordon traces the machine’s remarkable journey into and throughout Japan, where it not only transformed manners of dress, but also helped change patterns of daily life, class structure, and the role of women. As he explores the selling, buying, and use of the sewing machine in the early to mid-twentieth century, Gordon finds that its history is a lens through which we can examine the modern transformation of daily life in Japan. Both as a tool of production and as an object of consumer desire, the sewing machine is entwined with the emergence and ascendance of the middle class, of the female consumer, and of the professional home manager as defining elements of Japanese modernity.
