Made to Serve, Made to Last

Made to Serve, Made to Last: Poems and Thoughts of an Engineer. From the Challenger shuttle disaster to the utility and durability of antique tractors, these poems capture the joys and sorrows of an engineer's life. Steven W. Trimble, PhD, is a Professor of Practice in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at Arizona State University. His poems reflect over 50 years of experiences from youthful "fashioning forts for play" to designing aircraft, submarines, rockets, and solar power plants that are "made to serve, made to last".
