5.0 out of 5 stars The best book written for understanding Motors and Controls, October 31, 1998

By A Customer

I was issued one of these books when I completed Electricians Mate School at Great Lakes, Ill.(1964 Navy) At that time, I wasn't sure why the Navy would issued this book, but it has turned out to be the cornerstone of my technical library. I have worked as an electrician, electrical contractor, trade school instructor, and electrical instructor for the Air Force) I have the 1st Edition, 2nd Edition, and the 3rd Edition. There has been times when I could not find or remember a control problem or solution. Every time I found the answer in the "Rosenberg." This book is a must for anyone working in the electrical trades or teaching electrical motors and controls.

5.0 out of 5 stars Electric motor repair., January 23, 2000

By	Luis Paulo Mendes (Zimbabwe) - See all my reviews

This book is great. I've read many books on repairing electric motors , but none of them have given me a practical & theoretical view on the subject as this book has. I recommend this book to students, and fully quallified engineers. The best...... My greatest thanks to the authors.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent guide, March 3, 2004

By A Customer

I am an electrician whose job requires trouble shooting different types of equipment for different customers in many different environments. I see all kinds of motors and machines and jury rigs. This book is invaluable for troubleshooting any motor on the planet. It gives excellent reference schematics and diagrams that coincide with the different chapters. It has helped me on many occasions. It's really meant for poeple who
re-wind motors more than trouble shooters but you will not regret owning it if you do any kind of maintenance or trouble shooting on a variety of machines.
