I bought this book for my son who is not rllaey experienced but knows some about how to weld and has worked welding for a plumber for a short time.

He said this book was too elementary and didn't cover all aspects that he was hoping for. He wanted to know more about welding for design and how to correct problem areas and it wasn't covered in this book.
