5.0 out of 5 stars
Contains a vast collection of British Gas knowledge,
By A Customer
This review is from: Combustion Engineering and Gas Utilization (Hardcover)
I was the original commissioning editor and worked with the Editor of the book for over a year. I was amazed at the depth of detail brought together in one volume by the world's largest gas company. At over 1500 pages long it represents the premier authority on the use of gas fired equipment in industry. Would highly recommend this work as an important addition to any gas engineer's personal library.
