Hydraulics and Pneumatics: A Technician's and Engineer's Guide

I've had this since 2012 when I first graduated technical school and started working in industrial maintenance. It quickly got me up to speed and troubleshooting systems better than 95% of the technicians out there. Well written and good information.

Great book to keep your skills honed

A very descriptive and precise explanation of hydraulic and pneumatic operations. Good book

This is an excellent book for understanding Hydraulics and Pneumatics. I used this book a reference manual for the different symbol sets. It is a very easy read and understand. This book is great for anyone taking a class in both areas and/or tech reference manual.

this book guide me to understand well of the actuation of Hydraulic and pneumatic operation from basic

They deliver on what is advertised, but the quality for $40 is lacking. The paper is cheap and printing is marginally acceptable. Content seems pretty good for a basic book on Hydraulics and Pneumatics.

Great contemporary book on hydraulic and pneumatic circuits. I'm and engineer and this has been an easy read and will act as good reference manual when needed.

This is a great book for introduction to pneumatics. It has its shortcomings in that a handful of explanations are half-baked and that it's written such that EE's will understand best, but certainly a good purchase.

A little small, but has good information

Actually this is the second time I've bought this book. I stupidly loaned it out and then never got it back. This time I bought it for my Kindle and tablet so one way or another I've got it.What it's not. Slap bang up to date Biblical sized technical tome.What it is. A great general purpose introduction and reference book to give you a reasonable knowledge of hydraulic systems. If you have already got this knowledge and regularly work on hydraulics then there is a good chance you know everything in this book. If like me as a marine engineer you deal with hydraulics but not every day, then you need something to refer to now and again. This for me serves that purpose at a modest price. There are far more comprehensive books out there which are eye wateringly expensive and not in electronic format making them no suitable for travelling with.This for me allows me to refresh my brain when I have to read a drawing and fault find and it's easy, simple and ideal for that purpose.

Currently I'm working on a medical ventilator but I'm a software engineer and have no training in either pneumatics or hydraulics. This book looked like a good bet for giving me a quick overview of practical pneumatics. For that purpose it is fine but I'm not qualified to say whether it is any good for pneumatics/hydraulics specialists.

Easy aint it ? Just what we elec / software chaps need. To explain to mechanical chaps where they have gone wrong !! ( haha )

Very usefull
