Slide Rules (häftad, eng)

In the hopes of "preserving these delightful devices for future generations," this collector of slide rules covers everything one could possibly want to know about this crude form of analog computer: from its invention in the 17th century to manufacturers- retailers, 1850-1998, and the Oughtred Society for collectors.

Includes a glossary with biographies, patent data, component specs, dating and valuing, care, historical milestones, and illustrations
