Hi:
There is a book out there that is supposed to be the most insightful re: Nomography.
It's author is the Polish mathematician Otto Edward, the title is, guess!, Nomography.
It has been translated to English in 1963.
Sofar, I could not get my hands on it, but somebody amongst the CelNav enthusiasts
might. I would very much like to see the index of the contents of this book.
Regards
PS: Thanks for the very nice contributions to the topic!!
