Overview

The world is all about diversity, and many things differentiate human beings in each country.Different languages. Different food. Different clothes. Different faces. Different people.And this diversity is great - it is to be celebrated.But, now and then, diversity and differences cause confusion and waste time. I am talking about units of measurement, and how different countries use different units, making it difficult for someone who's new in a country to adjust, initially. The major differences are between the suite of units used in the United States of America, and that used in most of the rest of the world, especially in Europe (the metric system of measurement).Whether it's length, area, temperature, distance, height, volume, or any other unit of measurement, there's a good chance that the unit of measurement you use in your country is different from that used in at least one other major country in the world.This handbook will change all that, and make sure that you are never confused when it comes to converting units of measurement ever again. This comprehensive guide to the 5 most commonly used measurement unit pairs in the world will help you convert from the SI system of units to local systems of units.You can read this book at your own pace; at the end of it, you will be someone who can fluidly translate from one unit of measurement to the other. When your friends are scrambling for their calculators or smartphones to make sense of this new alien universe of unknown units, you will be able to come up with an approximate conversion value in a few seconds, all in your head!Anyone can use this book. If you are someone who travels a lot, it is an invaluable work of reference, as well as a great way to practice your conversion chops before you travel. If you are someone who is learning about units of measurement for the first time, even if you are in school, this will help you get your fundamentals very strong for the future. It is truly for everyone!
