Praise for the Previous Editions "The editor of this masterpiece, Bela Liptak, is a longtime engineering consultant, a teacher at Yale, and a fellow of the ISA. He is clearly devoted to producing a useful reference. ... The book is replete with simple explicatory figures and diagrams; well-organized summaries with information on the costs, suppliers, ranges, and inaccuracies of the instruments covered; and practical tips on related subjects such as good instrument maintenance practices. ... Comprehensive, practical, and well-organized, this book is highly recommended for academic libraries and engineering company libraries. It can best serve as a teaching aid for students or as a reference manual for both new and experienced practicing engineers." -E-Streams "Those [contributors] eventually selected are without doubt among the best. ... Whether used as a textbook by inexperienced engineers or as a quick reference book for the experienced engineer, this book is set to continue to be the main reference to the instrument engineer for the next decade." -Alan Reese, Control & Instrumentation "I have seen nothing with the scope of this handbook." -Roy V. Hughson, Chemical Engineering "In our smaller universe of process control, Bela Liptak is a towering presence." -Terrence K. McMahon, ControlMore details
