I used the Schaum's series for my engineering cources in the 1970's, which was extremely helpful in being proficient in the understanding and solving problems in statis and strength of materials. I re-purchased the series for my son, who is also majoring in mechanical engineereing. He, too, finds the booklet very useful.

I picked up this book to review statics and mechanics of materials and found it missing much fundamental information on the subject. No mention was made of the concept of Mohr's Circle which is useful in visualizing computation of combined stress states. The solved problems tend to be inadequate in explaining the subject. It was helpful however to have statics and mechanics of materials in a single text (a bargain buy!). Pick another text to either learn or review this subject.

The book isn't overall bad, but the explanations assume a strong comprehension of the subject. As for statics and mechanics, it is merely a few select cases, and fails to actually help. Several vital steps are omitted outright, so you'd be better off skipping this book, and searching for a question and answer bank.
