OPPORTUNITIES IN ENGINEERING Annotated edition by CHARLES M HORTON Reference eBooks
This is an ancient book-written 94 years ago.The advice is still very relevant for students
considering the continuing needs of the
engineering profession.
For instance, the author explains important
personal characteristics of a good engineer.
Examples are inquisitiveness, objectivity and
the ability to seek evidence-based solutions.
Horton explains the theoretical and practical
sides of engineering. He views engineering
applications in civil engineering, electrical,
mechanical and mining. More recently, the
profession has branched out into areas like
fire safety, industrial engineering, chemical
and nuclear engineering (fission/fusion).
Overall, this book would help prospective
engineering students to decide on a major
based upon the personal characteristics
required of engineers and the classic jobs
or opportunities that have been always
available. ( in some cases dating back centuries)

OPPORTUNITIES IN ENGINEERING Annotated edition by CHARLES M HORTON Reference eBooks Reviews
Good book
It was a great read and was very insightful for anyone interested in engineering. I would recommend this to any engineering student.
Very chauvinist book that explicitly states that only American Christian men can be successful engineers. I couldn't even finish this book it was so disgusting.
This is a good read if you are a young guy looking to get into the engineering feild, or a a current engineering student. The Authors views are very very similar to my own. I strongly agree with many of the statements and descriptions that the author makes in this book. There are a few things that the author talks about that never did come to fruition (like engineers playing an important role in todays political scene) but this does not in any way hurt the other messages the book portrays.
Again I would strongly recommend this book to students entering or currently enrolled in the study of engineering. Also a note worthy point is I found some of the passages quite comical!
Good
This is a great work, I found it very informative. It's strange that there really aren't a whole lot of books like this written in contemporary times. Modern books will list the different engineering fields and some short description about them and about other things such as career progression or salaries, but they don't go in depth like this book nor do they have an engaging writing style the way this book does.
A good essay on the role of the engineer and how each person in an engineering environment should function.
There are some mentions of God and religion, although I don't recall exactly if the word "God" was there, the text almost felt religious in some sense. You realize that it almost reads like a religious pamphlet, yet almost as if the hierarchy of engineering is like a caste system. I don't mean it in a bad way necessarily, but that's how I felt when I kept on reading it.
It's a little difficult to find the biography of the author, seeing if the writing was done during the late 1800s. Probably that's why there's some religious context in the essay, although that may be my bias towards one's context of religion and the sciences.
