HVAC text reviewJul 19, 2010 Book came in excellent condition as a used text. This book is a perfect fit for learning the engineering basics of HVAC. It is easy to read and understand the material presented. The publisher also offers a website with useful aids, examples and software to suppliment and keep current all the material presented.
Timeliness of DeliveryMar 02, 2010 Appreciated the immediate delivery. Had previously ordered the text from another (cheaper) source, but after waiting 14 days, gave up because of lost in mail delivery. Cost a little more, but delivery response was great.
Most amount of errors I have ever seen in a bookNov 18, 2009 This book has errors everywhere. Symbols, text, examples, simply everything. I can't believe someone could publish anything with so many errors! Other than that, its a decent book but it fails to explain many concepts as a whole.

Horrible!!May 09, 2006 By far the worst text book I've ever had to use. Riddled with errors. Poor and incomplete explanations of complex subject matter. Examples and problems often with errors. Does lead the student into intense studying of content, if only to understand exactly what authors are saying and whether it is correct or not. Included software worthless except for limited use in solving problems in text.
This book should be offered free to India, Japan, and China to give us an edge over their HVAC engineerng expertise.
