METRICS FOR JOHN AND JANE CITIZEN
By James McGill Webb
INDUSTRIAL TRAINING SERVICE—DEPARTMENT OF LABOUR

48 p. 50c

As the name implies this book is written for use by the
layman rather than the technician, the engineer, or the
scientist. This book does not include conversion tables but
rather relates to metric units and their use, comparisons of
size, and includes a wide range of metric information. How
big is a litre? What is a kilopascal? When will I use
a centimetre? What will I buy in kilograms? Why is New
Zealand going metric? If these and similar questions are
causing you concern this book will provide the answers.
