 Good intro for EE book March 31, 2010

Its pretty good and a pretty light read. Could use some more analytical explanation, but its really meant to just introduce the basic equipment of power systems.

This book provides a great introduction into the world of bulk power for those of us who are not familiar with that aspect of the utility industry.
 DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK September 16, 2009

A book on power systems that mentions Edison, Westinghouse but NOT TESLA! They go as far to to mention the Niagra Falls power plant and not mention Teslas name. For those who don't know, Tesla designed the power plant at Niagra Falls. It appears that the IEEE has lowered their standards in order to please GE.
