Rating:
Summary: Un mécanicien qui veut apprendre l'électronic.
Review: C'est un bon livre mais seulement pour ceux qui ne connaissent rien de l'électronique de base. Il comporte les notions de base de l'électronique comme, la loi d'ohm, CC, Ca, resistor serie, parallèle, relay, diode etc dédier à l'automobile. Les illustrations son bonnes. C'est une livre d'apprentissage. Beaucoup de questions et réponses. Ce livre ne parle pas beaucoup d'injection. Il est en noire et blanc.
Dans sa catégorie, C'est un très bon livre d'initiation.

Summary: I would agree with what has been stated...
Review: This book is about as cool as the other side of the pillow!

It is easy to understand; very basic. But it does not appear to be basic due to a lack of knowledge by the author, but rather, an intentional, well thought-out explanation, presented in such an auspicious way that even the mechanically declined can pick up a nugget of gold or two or three.

The writer from Canada was correct: It is a good instructional book that doesn't get too in-depth. It will give the lay carsmen a better understanding of that beast we call electricity and electronics in automotives, and consequently, will give consumers a better appreciation that their auto technician knows a) what the heck is going on with their car and, b) can fix it.

Two thumbs up to Mr. Chapman. This one's a winner And by the way, it appears as though the author hasn't fallen into the same ignominious pattern as most self-absorbed authors, with an update to their book every quarter or semester.
