Textbooks for Junior Technical Schools.

The Craftsman's Library consisted of books written for students at the Lower Technical Schools who were studying to become mechanical or electrical technicians. They were written—as, in fact, were all of the Foundation’s books— by experts with teaching and professional experience, and their content was fully aligned with the current curriculum.

The books measured 14 x 21 cm to make them easy for the artisans to use, and they were bound in a special plastic so that the books could withstand the specific conditions prevailing in the workshops and garages where the students worked. The series was printed in a deep green color, which is why these books became known to students and teachers as the Eugenides Foundation’s “green books.” Despite the simplicity of their writing, these books continued to serve as a source of useful information for school graduates even as they entered the workforce. 

Between 1957 and 1975, 32 degrees were awarded in these two fields. The books in this library are no longer published by the Eugenides Foundation, ever since the Lower Technical Schools were abolished.

Car

This book provides, in as simple a manner as possible, some basic information on the description, operation, and maintenance of a car. This knowledge contributes to the proper and safe use of the car, resulting in significant cost savings, an extension of the car’s lifespan and service life, and a reduction in accidents.

Automotive Electrical System

This book from the Craftsman's Library covers the electrical system of a car. Its purpose is to help students understand how various automotive electrical components work and to lay the groundwork for their specialization, while also providing them with the opportunity for hands-on practice.

Electrical Engineering - Volume I (2nd Edition)

The purpose of this first volume of Electrical Engineering is to familiarize students with the concepts of the main electrical quantities and with the fundamental electrical and magnetic phenomena that they will encounter in their profession. This serves as an introduction to the subsequent volumes, which are more technical in nature and deal in greater detail with the technical applications of electricity.

Electrical Engineering - Volume II (Electric Machines)

This second volume of Electrical Engineering covers electric machines. This book includes everything that, in the author’s opinion, every electrical technician needs to know about electric motors. The purpose of this volume is to help students understand how electric motors are constructed and how they operate, and to explain their operating principles in the simplest way possible.

Electrical Engineering for Mechanical Technicians

The purpose of this book is to teach the mechanic everything necessary to ensure his or her safety, to always check that the instruments and devices they handle are safe, and to ensure that all necessary measures have been taken to protect them from electric shock.

Engines - Volume I

This book was written to be used beyond the classroom, as a resource for craftsmen and anyone who would like to gain a comprehensive understanding of the fundamental topics of Internal Combustion Engines. It is enriched with numerous diagrams, and the general theories it contains have been simplified to make them easier for readers to understand.
