Seal Design References

(OP)
Does anyone own this or have experience with it? There are only two reviews and I'm curious if anyone would recommend it.

Seals And Sealing Handbook by Robert K Flitney 5 ED
http://www.amazon.com/Seals-Sealing-Handbook-Fifth-Edition/dp/1856174611/ref=sr_1_7?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1334696853&sr=1-7

I work as a mechanical engineer at a company who's devices use a wide variety of seals. We could use a design guide/reference in our library for general questions. If you have any other trusted references I'd love to hear about them.

Many thanks.

RE: Seal Design References

Here is my 2 cents. I used to have that book available at my previous job. It is a good book for quick references. However, if you are dealing with special applications (i.e. toxic gases or lubricants, etc) you must go to the indivual seal supplier for additional technical specifications.
