Akihiro Ametani has been a professor at Doshisha University since 1985 and is a Fellow of the IET, Life Fellow of the IEEE, and a Distinguished Member of CIGRE. He has been active for much of his career in the development and dissemination of the tools described in this book.

'In conclusion, this book is a good reference to become familiar with the tools and methods available for the numerical analysis of power systems transient and dynamics. It has extensive literature reviews and case studies covering major topics in the transient analysis of electric power systems. An advantage of this text is its presentation of a combination of recent research and traditional knowledge in the area.'
