Review

"As an instructor of Engineering Technology students, I was especially pleased to read (in the preface) that great effort was made to 'bridge the gap between academic work and practical work'."

"I especially like the practical focus of the book. In these days of reduced laboratory experience, the student may not get a chance to experiment with real transformers, motors and generators. While the very practical information stressed here is not a perfect substitute for hands-on work, this information will be very valuable."

"I am glad to see that [the second edition] retained all of the wonderful coverage of fundamentals and engineering practice that made [the] first edition so valuable, and I know that future generations of students will benefit from the book like myself...The textbook proper can definitely serve an undergraduate course on Electric Machines, and the textbook with the web resources can be used at the graduate level. [The] textbook offers numerous insights into the practice of engineering. The explanations and figures are thoughtful and beneficial to the learning process. The in-chapter examples, exercises, and end-of-chapter problems are exceptional; in that, they not only support an understanding of the subject matter, but offer practical insight into applications. [This] textbook is unique because it seamlessly blends fundamentals and engineering practice. It is a 'must have' for students and practicing engineers alike."
