If you prefer a book, take a gander at "The Perfectionists" by Simon Winchester. If you enjoy the pedantry of accuracy vs precision (or wish you did), this book is for you.
- aesthesia 6y agoI was disappointed with the book. There was not enough actual technical detail about achieving high levels of precision and too much journalistic fluff.
