Happy in Hood River

For the price, we are very happy with the product. It had some minor cosmetic defects, but nothing that a layer of duct tape couldn't fix. And it makes the book look burly!
A Gem, with caveats
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
This is an excellent, if dense read that bridges the gap between the science of electricity, and the practical matter of an Electrician's work. It will not fully explain the science of the topic, and it will certainly not teach you how to wire a house. It is a very good book if your question runs along the lines of "Why does it work that way?" Its treatment of Ohm's law and other fundamentals is particularly useful. That said, the index is a nightmare, the book is not organized by page number, and it contains some apocrypha. I have been an electrician for just over two years now (and I wrote this using my wife's login, because I'm too lazy to relog)
A Must For Every Serious or Professional Electrician

W A R N I N G: This book is not for the weekend repairman!!! This is a very intense book for the professionals or for someone who would like to further their knowledge. This truely might be the last book an electrican will ever buy. A must for your library!
An Electrician's Life-saver
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
I originally purchased this book on the recommendation of another electician. Many electrician training schools use this same book to teach their students. I found it to be easy to comprehend, and to be a wealth of information that has helped me enormously in my work, and to prepare for Electrician's exams. I would recommend this to any electrician (Apprentice, Journeyman, etc. I have used and abused mine so much, that it's time for me to purchase another copy - that's how useful a tool it is.
