This soft cover book is a study guide and only has questions (an examination book). The questions can only be answered from information in the larger hard cover book of the same title by the same authors. The contents of this book as listed here are not correct and are the contents of the hard cover text book. This soft cover book has no information what so ever, it is purely questions to be answered by the reader based on the reader reading the hard cover book. It also appears that there are two hard cover books available with the same list of contents, both books being by the same authors but the front cover photo is different; the most recent book is modern refrigeration and air conditioning 2000. It is incorrectly shown by Amazon that this soft cover book is the same book as the two hard cover books.This soft cover book is usefull to a reader who wants to test themselves after reading the hard cover books.

This is a good book to get a beginners understanding of refrigeration equipment. HOWEVER be careful not to buy this paperback edition in hopes that it will give you anything close to the hardcover’s information! This is at best a good classroom companion to be used with a teacher at the helm. It is even set up as a lesson and answer book, just like in highschool. I was dissappionted when after the thirty day limit, I cracked the book for the first time and found that I had purchased a highschool coarse book. Good as it would be for that, the description is not clear about it. The hardcover might be the thing you’re looking for if you would like good straight forward info.

Thanks to the length of time this book has been available and the frequent revisions to the copyright, it continues to get bigger and better as time goes on.
My bookshelf has at least 5 of those revisions that frequently get utilized . Each revision builds upon the prior publication and expands on the detail they provide.
This publication represents an established reference standard for the HVAC/R Industry. It is especially valuable because of the extent of the different technical topics presented within its covers.
Some have tried to copy the format and the content but still fail to match its quality and level of professionalism.

I’m a mechanical engineer, and have never found a so complete and easy-to-understand book. It focus on every aspect I have concern about, and is deep in theory and practical views for refrigeration and its basic principles. You should buy this book if you’d like to succeed in the field of refrigeration, it’s just great!

We have used this book as a study textbook for the last two semesters at college. As a student it has proven to be very useful. It has very good illustrations and diagrams along with helpful insight to the nuts and bolts of all A/C units. Where the frustration part comes in and is a mystery to me is what ever department that was responsible for reviewing the end of chapter questions and the questions in the test bank dropped the ball. It is quite evident that the questions and the text don’t correspond. This leads one to believe that the department that is responsible for test questions and chapter questions do not have a back-ground in Air Conditioning / Refrigeration. I have used a lot of frustrating time in a futile effort to match answers with text. Its a shame that such an informative textbook be degraded on default.
