Editorial Reviews

Review

From the reviews: "This work explores the advances in electric machines, focusing on new topologies and the application of new materials in electric machines. The topics covered in this ten-chapter book … are excellent additions to a breadth of topics that one will not find in a traditional work on electric machines. … The chapters on material engineering, superconducting electric machines, and naval electric machines must be read by researchers in this field. … Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-division undergraduate through professional collections." (C. Mi, Choice, Vol. 46 (10), June, 2009)
