Reliability Evaluation of Engineering Systems

A must read for understanding of the reliability and availability practices. Very clear explanations and applications. Well suited as an introductory text for advanced undergrad and graduate study of reliability.

Rare book - excellent introductory text

This is a part of a two-volume set (though you can read them independently) on reliability with a special focus on systems reliability. Nice writing style, very useful examples - especially for those working in the electric power generation industry. Hard to find though - grab it when you can !
