Default jigs and fixtures

I've finished reading Joe Martin's book, Tabletop Machining, and also


Hmmm...


Can someone recommend some books that explain how one designs jigs and
fixtures for metal work?


I found "Jig and Fixture Design" by Edward G. Hoffman at Hamilton
Books last year, sight unseen. It turns out that it's an all metalwork
book vs. a woodworking jig book. It appears to be a textbook since he
talks about students. He has written 17 books about tools and
manufacturing engineering. 334 pages, paperback, 8x10", 1991.

Want to trade for Martin's book? I can't find a copy of that locally.
