TutorText The Slide Rule by Robert Saffold and Ann Smalley, published in 1962, is a vintage instructional guide that teaches the now-obsolete but historically significant slide rule. As part of the TutorText series, this book uses a programmed learning approach to break down complex calculations, making it an essential resource for students and engineers of its time. With the slide rule having been replaced by digital calculators, this book serves as both an educational tool and a fascinating artifact of mid-century mathematical instruction. A must-have for collectors, historians, and anyone interested in the evolution of mathematical tools.

This hardcover edition with its original dust jacket is in very good condition, showing only minor shelf wear and mild toning consistent with age. The dust jacket remains intact with slight edge wear. A well-preserved piece of educational history.
