The volume of an object is the amount of cubic length units contained in the object.
For example, 4 cu mm means that 4 cubes, 1 mm on each side, would precisely ll some three-dimensional object. (The cubes may have to be cut and rearranged so they match the shape of the object.) Available for free at Connexions <http://cnx.org/content/col10615/1.4>
