Customer Reviews

More than introduction. Very useful

I have found this book of much aid in my work as a scientist, in fact, some doubts I had were totally dissipated from the clear explanation and practical examples showed here. It is truth that there are some flaws, but it is apparent that they come from Editor, for example Figures showing diagrms etc. Of great help is the fact that the author gives us access to his abundant collection of data wherefrom one can learn how to handle them. I would wish all the authors make like Dr. Jennings in that sense, for the readers will gain a better comprehension of the phenomena whereby they can obtain the necessary process understanding more easily. Concerning arrangement of the Chapters, the author used the logic, thus the book was built in such a way that the understanding of one chapter provides the basis for the understanding of the following one. For all the reasons states, I congratulate Dr. Thomas.A.Jennings and recommend his book.
