Product Description

The Standard Handbook for Electrical Engineers has served the EE field for nearly a century. Originally published in 1907, through 14 previous editions it has been a required resource for students and professionals. This new 15th edition features new material focusing on power generation and power systems operation – two longstanding strengths of the handbook that have recently become front-burner technology issues. At the same time, the entire format of the handbook will be streamlined, removing archaic sections and providing a quick, easy look-up experience.

2.0 out of 5 stars Tables are just scanned from printed version and unreadable, May 9, 2010

This review is from: Standard Handbook for Electrical Engineers (Kindle Edition)

I tried the preview on the Kindle for iPad app, and it was barely useable at best. The tables were just scanned from the printed version, in a resolution that rendered the tables unusable when enlarged to be readable. The few graphics I saw were OK though.

Note to Amazon.com: turn up the resolution when scanning images from the printed version for use in the Kindle version. A table that is enlarged so the text is of readable size ness to be, well, readable.
