Customer Reviews

This book is just very good,if u're a teacher u'll love this book, for an undergraduate class's u have everything u need to make your class's just complete and scientifically complete, i'm very satisfied with this purchase.

This book was highly recommended by a lot of people when taking the P.E. exam. It will teache you concepts that may have been kind of "foggy" in your regular course of study. I have highlighter marked all through my book..and YES, I did pass the P.E. exam. :-)

This book is famous even when I was in college in 78. But technology changed in the area of computations. One area that this book is poor is that it does not have software code to test the algorithms. As a student or professional, you do not just compute using calculators. You need to test it with a program. It will help a student a lot if there are sample code in C to test around and checks one's calculations.

This is a classic. Anyone interested in the electrical theory behind generation, transmission, system protection, power flow analysis, and system stability analysis should buy this book. This is the standard textbook in many EE departments and will prepare you well for the PE exam.
