A comprehensive textbook for general purpose mechanical engineers on the mechanics of mechanical clocks and watches.Discusses the details of gear train performance in highly technical and mathematical terms, especially the effects of malalignment of gears errors, and proposes a slight modification of tooth forms (from the theoretically perfect cycloidal tooth form, to inclrease error tolerance.
