Good guide.,

This review is from: Guide to Energy Management, Sixth Edition (Hardcover)
I purchased this book specifically for the CEM exam. The material covered is a good overview for the exam. However it does not cover all the topics you need to know (Codes and Standards, Alternative Financing, and some other stuff). The problems are not quite representative of the problems that are on the exam though. They are set up a bit differently and also cover some topics that the exam did not ask. If you practice these questions anyway (need the Solutions book too), you'll be more than qualified but may also be wasting your time on stuff you don't need to practice. However, a lot of the material from this book is incorporated into AEE's CEM course and is important for the exam.
Overall, you should definitely get this book for preparing for the exam, especially paired with the Energy Management Handbook by Turner and Doty. Besides the test, it's a great book to have anyway for reference if you are in the Energy Management field, easy to understand and well written.

Guide to Energy Management (math inconsistencies),
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Guide to Energy Management, Sixth Edition (Hardcover)
Although the book is fairly informative, I am having a really hard time following the math equations and concepts. There are several errors in various chapter "example calculations", therefore it becomes confusing if trying to use the examples to figure out the chapter review questions. Chapter 4 especially was not very good at explaining Present Worth when dealing with depreciation, and concepts concerning ROR or IRR. This is a good "overview" type book, but leaves a lot to be desired if you are really trying to understand concepts behind the information.
3.0 out of 5 stars

This review is from: Guide to Energy Management, Sixth Edition (Hardcover)
The sheer number of typos, grammatical errors, and omissions in this book are unacceptable and just plain annoying. The text is also in need of updating to coincide with the current state of affairs in the economy....just keep that in mind when reading that since '09, the game has changed a little bit.
Overall though, the text does a good job at giving you a general idea on the majority of the energy management topics. Would have given it four stars, but the errors are just too common.
