5.0 out of 5 stars Diesel Technology: Fundamentals, Service by Andrew Norman
I bought the book to enhance my knowledge of diesel engines. I own two Cummins diesels and have many customers that own diesels. The book is well written, easily read, easy to understand, and well organized. Its a text book so a little previous knowledge with diesels is helpful. The information is presented in theory as most text books are and has a work book that goes...

1.0 out of 5 stars Misleading or cheating?
I was looking for the textbook. The Amazon site lists "hardcover" and "paperback" versions. The paperback version is significantly less expensive. So I ordered the paperback version.

1.0 out of 5 stars Misleading or cheating?, October 3, 2010

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Diesel Technology (Paperback)
I was looking for the textbook. The Amazon site lists "hardcover" and "paperback" versions. The paperback version is significantly less expensive. So I ordered the paperback version. It turned out that this "paperback" version is actually not the textbook itself, but the workbook for the textbook. Yet on the Amazon website, it is simply listed as "paperback" together with "hardcover" version. This is misleading at best and cheating in reality. The Amazon site should specifically indicate that this is the workbook, not the textbook.

5.0 out of 5 stars Diesel Technology: Fundamentals, Service by Andrew Norman, February 5, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I bought the book to enhance my knowledge of diesel engines. I own two Cummins diesels and have many customers that own diesels. The book is well written, easily read, easy to understand, and well organized. Its a text book so a little previous knowledge with diesels is helpful. The information is presented in theory as most text books are and has a work book that goes along with it to enhance your learning experience if you wish to buy it separate. The end of the chapters also have review questions if your interested in serious learning. I would recommend this book to anyone studying diesel engines. Remember its a text book not a tech manual. The book was in great shape & I received it promptly when ordered from the seller. I would buy from them again.

I bought this work book from the used book category. The book I received was in better shape than expected. I would risk buying used from this company again. Thank you.

Perfect! I needed this book for a friend to have for the diesel class they are taking, and this was cheaper than the school was selling it for so this is great! I was skeptical of whether or not this was the correct/most current edition, and it is! Thanks Amazon!
