      Written specifically with service technicians and engineers in mind, this book is designed as a bench-side companion and guide to the principles involved in repairing and adjusting CD players. Engineers will find this a helpful companion to the various service manuals. The text takes a problem solving approach with numerous examples, circuit diagrams and line drawings.Engineers who need to achieve a better understanding of CD technology will find this book an essential tool for fault diagnosis, adjustment and repair. This book not only covers the mechanical design but also the integrated circuits within a CD player. It is written for immediate application and is well illustrated, so it should become a welcome addition to the rack of tools available to the service engineer. Ken Clements has extensive experience of the service industry both as a service manager and later in technical training with Sony and Pioneer. It is his hands-on knowledge that makes the book so valuable, not only as a wide-ranging reference but also as a benchtop manual to be kept within reach at all times when working with CD players.

      International Progress in Precision Engineering documents the proceedings of the 7th International Precision Engineering Seminar held in Kobe, Japan, May 1993. The seminar brought together the world's leading precision engineering practitioners from areas of application as diverse as sensors, actuators, scanning tip microscopy, micro and nano machining (including bio-machining), ultra precision measuring machines, machine tools, and large optics for space technology. The seminar included 10 oral sessions that dealt with the following topics: (I) Metrology - The Science Base For Precision Engineering; (II) Sensors and Actuators in Precision Engineering and Nanotechnology; (III) New Materials - Applications and Ultra-Precision Energy Beam Processing; (IV) Nanotechnology Machining Processes; (V) New Developments In Ultra-Precision Machines; (VI) Ultra-Precision, Servo, and Control Technology; (VII) Precision Engineering in Space Technology; (VIII) X-Ray Technologies and Their Applications; (IX) Micromechanics and Micrometrology; and (X) New Developments n Precision Engineering. There were also poster sessions and an introductory keynote speech by Dr. H. Mizuno, Executive Vice-President of Matsushita/Panasonic... who talks on the symbiotic relationship between electronics and precision engineering.

      Diesel Generator Handbook meets the need for an authoritative reference work covering the range of mechanical and electrical topics embodied in the practical design and application of diesel generating plant. It will be particularly welcomed in many parts of the developing world where the diesel generator is basic to the electricity supply system. The discussion covers, in fifteen chapters, the prime mover, power ratings, synchronous generators, load assessment, control principles and systems, switchgear and controlgear, standby power, fuels and lubricating oilss, installation and commissioning, noise reduction, and plant operation and maintenance. The book thus caters for all who are concerned with the selection, specification, testing, commissioning, operation and maintenance of diesel-based generator systems: not only the practising plant or services engineers, but also non-specialist engineers and users. The young technician or trainee engineer who is embarking on a career in the supply industry will find this handbook an invaluable investment. L L J Mahon, FIEE, FBIM, after an engineering apprenticeship with BTH in Rugby, gained over 30 years' experience in the design, development, manufacture, installation and commissioning of both stationary and highly specialised mobile diesel generator plant for a range of applications.
