Practical Electricity - indeed it is
7 Mar 2006
Format:Hardcover
This is a great book. I discovered it in the Purdue Eng. Library while studying for a test. It really explained the material in a down to earth manner. The understanding I gained help me to know the concept, now I just need to work on the math. If Mr. Cook would write a book on Calc. and Diff. Eq. I'd be set.
