Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is a unique book. It describes the theories and processes of repairing and adjusting the modern watch in precise and meticulous detail: a thing which has never been done so completely before in the many books on the same subject. As a text book it is a revelation. Taking nothing for granted, except the ability to read and comprehend a simple description of mechanical processes, de Carle takes his reader through every stage and every operation of watch repairing ...and to deal with them thoroughly is quite a programme - it takes 300 pages containing 24 chapters, two appendices and 553 illustrations. The fine draughtsmanship and accurate technical detail of the illustrations set a new standard. Practical Watch Repairing can justifiably claim to be the best illustrated book on practical horology yet issued, and one of the best of its kind on any subject. The publication of the book marks the beginning of a new epoch in the study of the mechanics of horology.

Book excerpt: Few personal possessions have the resonance of finger rings, whether they serve as symbols of marriage, office, status or, in some cases, as token of hidden political or religious beliefs. This attractive volume provides an illustrated catalogue of the rings in the collection of the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford. These rings, which were worn by both men and women and range from the familiar to the bizarre in type, include examples from many different cultures across the centuries, including Egyptian, Minoan, Etruscan, Greek, Roman and, particularly medieval rings. All are illustrated with colour photographs with facing description. An initial discussion explains the terminology of ring studies and outlines changes in type, function and fashion.
