The change to the ISO system of metric units involves far more than mere substitution of meters for feet and kilograms for pounds. It encompasses the entire field of engineering and scientific measurements. These changes affect the users of the classical "Metric" system as well. This book deals with the principles involved, defines the various units and deals with conversion from one system to another.
