Hello Mr. Lipomi! I am an aspiring engineer from Brazil, and identify with a lot of the things you wrote. Is there any way to obtain this book via PDF or to import it? Thank you and congratulations to both of you for the effort!
That's a good idea! ChE curricula tend to just get right into it without an overview course of applications, etc. Sometimes programs have it, but it's generally not a 4-credit (full) course.
