“The first seven chapters cover the preliminary statements of the usual methods of treating alternate-current problems in general, also of measuring instruments, and discuss the theory of the single-phase transformer.... A very brief mention of single-phase commutator motors occupies the eighth chapter.... The rest of the book is devoted to the consideration of alternators both as generators and motors, and of induction motors.”—Nature.
“He has succeeded in producing an excellent reference book for engineers, but from the reviewer’s experience it is too heavy a text for undergraduates.” Henry H. Norris.
