The book is incomplete the cd-rom that should be part of the book not come. No simulation code is written in the book. All of the examples refer to the cd-rom that doesn’t accompany the book, in spite of being suitable that it is part of the same. I sent messages for the author and for the publisher requesting the cd-rom, but I never received answer. If somebody has the codes, favor to send me because I have the need to test them. Don’t buy that book, because it is expensive and incomplete.

Don’t despair if you order a copy of this book and it comes without a CD ROM. The Matlab and Simulnk Programs can be downloaded from Mathworks Web Site. Just look for this book among the long list of Matlab related books listed on Mathwork’s Web Site. There you will find a link enabling you to download the Matlab m files and the Simulink mdl files.

This is a book about how to simulate machines by using Matlab and Simulink. So it is very crucial that the book should contain a CD-ROM, which gives all the codes of the examples and projects illustrated in the book.
Otherwise it is impossible to use this book properly. Therefore I specially check this point before I order this book, which it does have a CD-ROM in the appendix B of this book. However when I received the book from Amazon, there is no CD-ROM attached to the book which makes it hard for me to use this book. I learned one customer got the same problem before I ordered; but I never thought it would happen again to me. I have contacted Amazon to request a CD-ROM for this book. I hope that I can receive the CD-ROM for this book as soon as possible.
Thanks

This book is really good and helpful. I think there is only onething missing. Improving the multimachine part in chapter 9 but except of that it is amazing and very good book. Thanks a lot for the book team …

I don’t think I’d want to try to teach a class from this book. I’d definitely use some material from this for creating labs in Matlab.
I like this book for a reference as a professional. Lots of equations, lots of pictures, lots of functional block diagrams to knit the equations together. However, this book is dedicated to machines, not power systems. Generally for power systems you use a canned model of a generator or motor. This book is helpful for understanding the underlying model, but is not targeted to power SYSTEM simulation.(such as one would do with PSS/E or PowerFactory, or PSCAD). Still I consider it a useful addition to my library when I have to go back and understand the underlying details of the machine.
To the guy who gave this one star because he didn’t get the disk with the book….I found the code on the mathworks website and downloaded it (30 seconds elapsed time from the point I said “I know its out there somewhere…”)
