The authors think that engineering textbooks used in Japanese universities have been getting easier. The situation is favorable for beginners because of their basic understanding, but whether learning process is suitable or not is disputable. The authors have been surveying the situation of mechanical design textbooks in Far East Asian countries. Characteristics in these countries are as follows : 1) in China, textbooks in universities whose contents are practical are planed by the state, 2) in Korea, wide ranging contents using translations from English and originals by Korean are employed, 3) in Taiwan, English textbooks using American standards and imperial systems are employed. Since engineering is related to industries and social system, engineering textbooks are reflected by nation' s policy and industry.
