Understanding Electric Power Systems: An Overview of the Technology and the Marketplace (IEEE Press Understanding Science & Technology Series)
"...translates highly complex and intricate material into a straightforward narrative, making it easy for the novice or layman to grasp highly technical electrical concepts." (Design-Build Dateline, March 2005)"Anyone wanting a broad overview about…the electric power grid in the United States will find this book very easy to read and will come away with a good general understanding..." (IEEE Electrical Insulation Magazine, January/February 2005)"…a good book for nonelectrical engineers and electric power engineers alike as it provides a good summary of where we have been and how we got to where we are today-all in one brief reading." (IEEE Power & Energy Magazine, July/Aug 2004)"Understanding Electric Power Systems is recommended for engineers, policymakers and students alike and can be a useful addition in the academic libraries for young researchers in electrical engineering.” (E-Streams, Vol. 7, No. 5)"In consistently clear and simple language, without strident arguments or unrealistic projections, these authors have put together a thorough explanation (arguably the best one in print) of what the electric power supply industry is...and its relationship to the worlds of law, politics, and finance."
