This book is packed with information and is well worth buying if you have no or limited DC electrical understanding. It's well written, covers many electrical components and even gives step by step guides on how to test and (in some cases) rebuild components. Using a multimeter is covered, the only slight downside for me is the lack of any colour photographs.

A helpful book none the less!

First of all there is a difference between an alternator and a dynamo. A dynamo is more commonly known in the US as a generator. That aside, you will find this book more helpful if you own an English classic. However, the tips and tools used are very common to both countries. If you read with a broader mind, you should find this book informative and useful.

unless you own a MG or some other brittish junk don't buy this book, not only is it childish to the point of being a complete waste of money but the author doesn't even know what he is talking about when it comes to how to correctly wire a common alternator, or dynamo, as he calls it

More a review of the previous one.

Pardon me, but I find it even harder to take advice from some backwoods hick who can't even spell the word british. I causes me to wonder if perhaps he had trouble reading it.I would further caution him that a many british cars are wired very differently than swamp buggies by having the ground opposite of the American standard. Perhaps that is one of the roots of his misunderstanding.
I have found it very common for people who can't find another vent for thier limited imaginations to go to bash a book, album, movie, ect. Usually it more stems from a lack of understanding than anything else. For instance Haynes is a British Publisher, so one could reasonably expect a book from them to cover british cars. Perhaps he would be better served with Wiring Your Swamp Buggy published by Hooked on Phonics.
Thank you.
