1. It is a good try summarizing various types of sensor in a book. Yet, readers must beware that many of the explanations are incorrect. The author tries to explain various sensors only by using his poor physics knowledge. Believing this book will result in a disaster in your scientific/engineering experiments. Sentences poorly written as well.



2. This is not so much a review of Doebelin as it is a review of Mr Georgia Tech who is making unsubstatiated criticisms of perfectly fine technical books without a shred of explanation or peer support of his views . The give away is that all his reviews use the EXACT same language no matter what the subject of the book he is criticising , down to the warning of "disasterous" lab results . He is probably a snotty 13 year old hacker just trying to cause trouble . Even the 20 of 24 people who found his 'review' helpful are probably Mr Snotty himself endorsing his own reviews form various grade school computers . BEWARE .



3. I wouldn't have submitted a review had I not read that written by 'Georgia Tech', whom I can only assume has some hidden agenda. Contrary to his/her suggestion, the physics in this text is sound and the prose is good. Those who recorded having found that review helpful have been misled.
   This is well-known respected text which is an excellent book for both students and practioners in the field of instrumentation. It is a well-established reference which has been refined over a number of editions. Scope of the text is wide and the balance between theoretical principles and practical applications is well-judged. If you can only afford one book on instrumentation then this is definitely one to get -it has served me well both at college and in industry. At nearly 1000 pages of good quality content it is worth its hardback price - the paperback version is excellent value if still available.



4. This book was one of the references in an undergrad measurement system class. I think this is a good introduction to someone who does not know what "sensor" means. But in a graduate level research and then in industry research, this book was not very useful. Entirely this book is oversimplified and omits many of widely used sensors in inductry. It also fails to cover the significant nonlinear effects in some sensors that engineers cannot ignore in implementation. For those who need a guide of how to select and use sensors in research, this is not the one you want to buy. -one star

1. Good book. Very relevant to my work and it provides a different dimension to how we look at what we are doing.

3 comments about Principles of Measurement Systems.

1. the book is good, one part is introducted in the textbook of our university.



2. I thought this book rather too challenging for the beginner and feel that unless you are pretty knowledgeable about the subject then there are other, simpler books that you should buy.



3. If you hope to use this book to get a general overview of measurement systems, then you may be alright, but if you want to be able to perform actual calculations, you should look elsewhere.

   This book contains absolutely no worked examples. This leads the reader unable to do the end of chapter problems as the book does not contain detailed mathematical definitions of some of the most important elements contained within in the problems.

   For instance, in chapter two, you are required to calculate the environmental coupling constants. Sadly, no where in the book does it actually explain how to do this.

   In summary, Principles of Measurements Systems is an incomplete volume, which reads more like a 1st draft than a 3rd edition.

   Very disappointing.

2 comments about Elements of Integration.

1. I really like this book. It is a short, focused text on graduate level integration theory. It is out of print, but is relatively cheap throught the used book sources. I am not noticing typos (which are too prevalent in more modern texts). The problems are relatively easy; the approach is abstract.



2. This book proves the basic theorems of integration theory in as much generality as it can without introducing distracting complications. That is, when faced with a choice between generality or clarity, this book always chooses clarity.
