Clear straightforward coverage of complicated material
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 27 years ago
I am always on the prowl for books which can help untangle the somewhat complicated world of alternating current. In particular, how inductive and capacitive reactance interact in AC circuits. Anyone who has tried to teach AC theory will appreciate the problem. The complex nature of the subject lends itself to explanations which are shrouded by arcane formulas. Frequently these formulas are simply presented as "facts" and the students grind out pages of impressive calcuations which they barely understand. "Electricity 4" lays bare the magic behind RCL circuits in clear, easy to understand language. Yes, the formulas are still there, but they are not the heart of the explanation. If you have ever struggled with RCL concepts I highly recommend "Electricity 4." Reviewed by Carter Stanfield, Air Conditioning Technology Instructor, Athens Area Technical Institute, Athens, GA
