Review
"Want to sound like you really know PCBs? (July 10, 1998) Reviewer: A reader from Minneapolis, MN I was looking for a book that would teach me enough about the current technology in electronic component packaging and multilayer PCBs that I wouldn't feel like a fool working with manufacturing engineers, PCB layout people, PCB manufacturers, and assemblers. I think I learned quite a bit; now people think I have years of experience with these technologies. I really like the format. Each chapter in this book is written by a different person: there are people from HP, TI, IBM, Motorola and dozens of others that offer theory and practical knowledge. I think this book is quite useful, but I also think two things are necessary to make it work: (1) moderate electronics/PCB background and (2) a more experienced co-worker who can answer any questions that you have. The best and most up to date book of its kind. (April 5, 1997) Reviewer: A reader This book is a must for any engeneering department involved in printed circuit board design as well as production engineering, quality engineering,etc. It is the most comprehensive book of its kind that I have seen. The new edition includes leading and bleeding edge technologies and goes into great detail. This is not a basics book. If your looking for a reference guide to the full spectrum of the printed circuit board industry, this is the one to buy Amazon.com Reader Reviews

The editor has done a credible job of finding knowledgeable people to write for him. I have used all of the earlier editions of this book at one time or another and have found it helpful along the way but it needs updating more often to avoid becoming a history book.
