The best, even not complete.
An excellent reference book. It goes deep in sealing: seals, gaskets, materials, dynamic and static, theoretical and practical approach. Unfortunately, it lacks a better coverage on metal seals and gaskets. However, no book even scratches this issue. Other books are no better than catalogues.

Review of "Principles and Design of Mechanical Face Seals"
I agree with the previous review... this text is an excellent source of information regarding mechanical face seals. It is detailed enough to satisfy your curiosity regarding some of the details, yet it is written in a manner that has proven easy to read. I have found it very useful to read this book, then search for and read the technical papers Mr. Lebeck has written since 1991.

Principals and Design of Mechanical Face Seals
The book provides an excellent look at some of the more technical aspects of mechanical seal design. It is a very good reference for any rotating equipment engineer. While it has some very intricate details, it does provide a lot of real word applicable knowledge.
