The book is a comprehensive overview of all aspects of a spacecraft electrical power subsystem, including real-life examples and design guidelines. There are very few other books that cover the same territory, and none are as up-to-date as the current edition, which has been refocused on the most commonly encountered types of power systems (i.e. solar photovoltaic, battery, and RTG). - Steve Lapen, Lecturer, Viterbi School of Engineering, University of Southern California
