 Outstanding Book! July 12, 2008
This is a great book. A must have for the Principles and Practice Professional Engineers Exam. It is very well written and has very useful information regarding electrical machines, drives, and power systems.
...Those were the textbooks March 24, 2008
There's no way I could revise a student's edition hardcover for a must for engineers. But I could revise my experience with this book in the past, This book helped me realize my potential as a student while outlining most topics in an easy manner. Few recommended guides match the potential guidelines/topics that this textbook covers. I really hope this edition helps me revise the topics I struggled with in the past as well as to help me learn the new topics covered.

 Basics only October 6, 2007

It treats only the basics of electrical machines and it is very outdated. I would recommend it instead:
Electric Machinery Fundamentals
Power Up! May 16, 2006
My job recently started to include quite a bit of Electrical Engineering such as generator sizing. I also needed to specify motor controls and electrical filters to avoid interference, and other electrical issues which I had a poor understanding of. I had suppliers and contractors asking me questions like I was some kind of electrical guru.
This book greatly assisted my understanding, and one of my latest projects involving a 125 HP submersible vertical turbine driven by a VFD was successful as a result.
Thanks, Steve Willie, Olympia, WA
