Now in its seventh edition, Bird's Electrical and Electronic Principles
and Technology introduces and covers theory through detailed examples
and laboratory experiments, enabling students to gain knowledge required
by technicians in fields such as engineering, electronics, and
telecommunications. This edition includes several new sections,
including glass batteries, climate change, the future of electricity
production, and discussions concerning everyday aspects of electricity,
such as watts and lumens, electrical safety, AC vs DC, and trending
technologies.
The extensive and thorough topic coverage makes this a great text for a
range of level 2 and 3 engineering courses, which has helped thousands
of students succeed in their exams. It is also suitable for BTEC First,
National and Diploma syllabuses, City & Guilds Technician Certificate
and Diploma syllabuses, and Foundation Degrees in engineering.
Its companion website at www.routledge.com/cw/bird provides
resources for both students and lecturers, including full solutions for
all 900 further questions**,** lists of essential formulae,
multiple-choice tests and illustrations, as well as full solutions to
revision tests and lab experiments for course instructors.
