5.0 out of 5 stars Practical Electricity - indeed it is, March 7, 2006
By 
David Goodman "DWG87" (West Lafayette, IN United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Practical Electricity (Hardcover)
This is a great book. I discovered it in the Purdue Eng. Library while studying for a test. It really explained the material in a down to earth manner. The understanding I gained help me to know the concept, now I just need to work on the math. If Mr. Cook would write a book on Calc. and Diff. Eq. I'd be set.
