By DaveHwriter "DaveHwriter" (California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Electromechanics: Principles Concepts and Devices (Hardcover)
Excellent electromechanical & mechatronics overview. Well orgainzed and written. Lots of helpful illustrations.
Better than the other mechatronics book I bought around this same time. This work highly emphasizes the mechanical.
