Reviews for Power Generation, Operation and Control
“Without a doubt, this book makes admirable progress in integrating the traditional with the new, and, as such, it is a worthy addition to professional libraries. It is a valuable text for a one- or two-course sequence in a graduate curriculum in power systems. Reasonable resource support for both student and instructor is available through the publisher.” (IEEE, 1 July ... Read more
