First Sentence:
A simple definition for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) is "electromagnetic fields living together in harmony."
Review
"Upon first glance of this book, my jaw dropped open and I stood there flipping from page to page. I cannot overstate the vast amount of knowledge this book contains. Each subject is covered from a basic point to a most advanced look. Huge equations cover the pages, yet more elementary concepts are explained in the simplest ways. But if you are like me, be forewarned! Opening this book you may find yourself flipping from page to page, concept to concept, and the original issue you wanted to research is long forgotten. ? "Anyone who is seriously working in the EMC and ESD fields will need to consider seeing this book. I expect it should become a standard reference book for electromagnetic compatibility design and testing, as well as covering electrostatic discharge issues. It is both complex and advanced, but with enough basic materials to be useful to a more novice engineer or technician. As for me, I have gladly cleared a space on my desk, front and center, where this book will now remain within arm's reach." - IEEE EMC Society Newsletter, No. 2304, Winter 2004 "This book contains a vast range of material and is very thorough?well written and useful?One of the more striking aspects of the book is the large number of tables?I would like to emphasize that I find this book very useful. It is obvious that Prof. Kaiser has put a tremendous amount of effort, care, and consideration into this text. Also, given the amount of useful material in this book, it is definitely a bargain." - IEEE Microwave Magazine, Vol. 6, No. 2, June 2005
Book Description
The Electromagnetic Compatibility Handbook is an unprecedented compilation of the many approximations, guidelines, models, and rules-of-thumb used in EMC analyses, complete with their sources and their limitations. The book presents these in an efficient question-and-answer format and incorporates an extremely comprehensive set of tables and figures. Mathcad was used to generate most of the plots and solve many of the equations, and the author includes the Mathcad programs for many of these. Designed to be of long-lasting value to engineers, researchers, and students, this book is ideal both for quick reference and as a text for upper-level and graduate electrical and computer engineering courses.
Reviews:
Let me be clear on front. This review is not about the material and contents of the book because I have not finishied reviewing it yet! However, I was so disappointed on CRC Press quality of the pages in this book. This book has over 2000 pages of material but the papers are so thin that if you Sneez it will get blown away. They are so thin that material on both side of page are transparent. It is unbelievably poor quality. Look at the price being charged for this book. I guess qulality doen't matter in these days. Note that this is suppose to be a Handbook!! It means it will get used in lab and in office so a decent paper for the money that is paid is not too much to ask. My apology to the author for this review because he has put in lot of effort in this work that is demalished by CRC press publishing. Be aware!
