Useful reference, helpful diagrams and illustrations By Oryx This was required text for a hybrid/fuel cell class I not long ago took at a local community college’s substitute fuel technology program. For the most percentage it without doubt or question explained the systems, components, hardware and software that are integrated in hybrid/electric and fuel cell vehicles. The only drawback to this book is that the technology is advancing very speedily so this book is obsolete in some chapters, I suspect that future editions will be significantly updated. It does cover the fundamentals very well and provides a strong starting point for students mesmerized in substitute fuel technology.

It walks you through the fundamental principle of the engineering science and market. I felt a little like being at school when doing the tests at the end of each chapter…..but it does make you re-read the part you did not genuinely understand.
