The slide rule is an invaluable tool of the scientist and engineer. Its use in technical courses at the college level is mandatory. Its use in high school science and mathematics classes, while not an absolute requirement for these classes, will certainly help you through the computations which arise.
This booklet is designed to introduce you to the slide rule, to help you learn to read its scales, and to explain its use in multiplication, division, and the extraction of square roots. There are four parts.
