This book is like a "bible" on Fire protection covers a lot of different areas. If you are involved with Fire Protection, this book is for you. Its made for those studying the field, or those that are in need of a good reference.

Clearly, this book is not for general interest, unless you aspire to be a fireman, but it definitely serves an important purpose. The two volumes are arranged by catagory then divided into chapters within each catagory. It covers fire safety, construction, storage of mateirals, fire suppression, etc. These books address everything to know about fire safety and keeping people safe from fires.

No Facilities or maintenance department should be without this handbook. No fire department should be without it. No insurance company should be without it. The two volumes are quite large, but if one has a question about fire safety, the answer should be in these two voumes.

Shows the variety of systems and components which may fail. An ME is dispatched to false-alarm failures, hence this book fills the requirement for component and systems knowledge.
