5.0 out of 5 stars An invaluable reference for engineers and technicians, May 20, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Comprehensive Dictionary of Electrical Engineering (Hardcover)

This book is a "must-have" in my collection. In this time of increasing specialization, no engineer or technician can keep up with terminology. I recommend this book to all electrical and electronics engineers and technicians, public libraries, and school libraries.
