Summary: Not for the handyman
Comment: These is a lot of information in this book but if you are trying to do your own electical, it doesn't help.

This book is great if you are studying to be an electrician. It gives you a lot of background material. But for the home project, go to HomeDepot and and get an electrians guide.

Summary: The Bible for Electricians and Aspiring Electricians
Comment: If your looking to get into the Electrician field or just need a steady reference guide, then this is the book for you. Residential, Commercial, Industrial...you name it. I've been a certified Electrician for 17 years and I still use this book as a quick reference manual to this day. Not overly complex but still gets down to the nitty gritty in details.

Definitely a must buy if you're interested in pursuing a career in this trade.

Summary: Too vague
Comment: Some very good information , but very vague on a lot of subjects. It would be nice to have more pictures and details of subject matter I have yet to find a really good electrical book other that the NEC CODE BOOK

Summary: Great book for future electrician!
Comment: I bought this book while in Iraq to study before I get out of the army and try to get under an apprenticeship. This book has helped me learn a LOT about the trade of inside wireman and the basic fundamentals of electricity from fomulas to installation of panel boxes to wiring an entire house and to which lamps will give the best lighting effect in a room. I am really looking forward to learning more about the trade. So far I have read it once and am already half way thru for my second time around. I highly recommend this book however, what I have learned about electrical is only from this book so I do not have a comparison.
