Raymond, Edward Brackett. Alternating current engineering, practically treated. [*]$2.50. Van Nostrand.
“This book is written by a member of the staff of the testing department of the General electric company; it consists of two parts; the first part contains the general theory of electricity and magnetism and a special theory of alternating currents; the second part treats of transformers, alternating current motors and alternators.... There is a great need for such a book, a book in which a young man just starting in practical electrical engineering work after college or any other school could find a clear, concise exposition of what he needs, what is done in practice, and why it is done so and not otherwise.”—Phys.
