Im Verlauf des 18. Jahrhunderts wurde in wissenschaftlich interessierten Kreisen immer wieder der Wunsch laut, die äusserst heterogenen Masse und Gewichte zu homogenisieren. Die Gelehrten störten sich zunehmend an den gebräuchlichen, über Jahrhunderte gewachsenen lokalen Masssystemen. Diese anthropomorphen Masse, wie der Fuss oder die Elle, behinderten in den Augen der Wissenschaftler durch ihre Uneinheitlichkeit und Ungenauigkeit den Austausch von Ideen und Handelswaren und damit schlussendlich den wissenschaftlichen, ökonomischen und gesellschaftlichen Fortschritt. Gegen Ende des Jahrhundert

Conceived as a reference manual for practicing engineers, instrument designers, service technicians and engineering students. The related fields of physics, mechanics and mathematics are frequently incorporated to enhance the understanding of the subject matter. Historical anecdotes as far back as Hellenistic times to modern scientists help illustrate in an entertaining manner ideas ranging from impractical inventions in history to those that have changed our lives.
