"There are nearly 1000 references cited in this book, making it an excellent resource and reference for the practicing engineer in power engineering, semiconductor connection electronics, or contact material science. Also, those wanting to quickly learn about the fundamentals of contact science will find this book to be well written and easy to read yet still contains very good technical depth to provide a sound understanding of the theory being presented." – In IEEE Electrical Insulation Magazine, May/June 2008, Vol. 24, No. 3"[This book] takes a practical applications approach to the subject and presents valuable design information for practicing mechanical and electrical engineers. … The authors of this book have many years of research and practical experience. One unusual and interesting aspect of the book's development is that it comes through the cooperation of the different approaches to the subject from the West and the East. They have succeeded in making the bulk of research and engineering data equally clear for all the segments of the international audience."-From the Foreword by Paul G. Slade, editor of the bestselling book Electrical Contacts: Principles and Applications
