| The first edition as well as its forerunner of Kuffel and Abdullah published in 1970 and their translations into Japanese and Chinese languages have enjoyed wide international acceptance as basic textbooks in teaching senior undergraduate and postgraduate courses in High-Voltage Engineering. Both texts have also been extensively used by practising engineers engaged in the design and operation of high-voltage equipment. Over the years the authors have received numerous comments from the text’s users with helpful suggestions for improvements. These have been incorporated in the present edition. Major revisions and expansion of several chapters have been made to update the continued progress and developments in high-voltage engineering over the past two decades.
As in the previous edition, the principal objective of the current text is to cover the fundamentals of high-voltage laboratory techniques, to provide an understanding of high-voltage phenomena, and to present the basics of highvoltage insulation design together with the analytical and modern numerical tools available to high-voltage equipment designers. |

 Calculus
The calculus course is a critical course for science, technology, engineering, and math
majors. This course sets the stage for many majors and is where students see the beauty of
mathematics, encouraging them to take upper-level math courses.
In a calculus market-research study conducted in 2008, calculus faculty... |  |  |  |  |
