Product Description
This book is a compilation of up-to-date information relative to Li-Ion technology. It provides the reader with a single source covering all important aspects of Li-Ion battery operations. It fills the gap between the old original Li-Ion technology and present state of the technology that has developed into a high state of practice. The book is designed to provide a single source for an up-to-date description of the technology associated with the Li-Ion battery industry. It will be useful to researchers interested in energy conversion for the direct conversion of chemical energy into electrical energy as a textbook. University people will find a comprehensive description of the state-of-the-art of the Li-Ion system. |

The Best Lithium-ion Battery Book Available Today by Dr. Philip Johnson (Virginia, USA)  5 Stars
July 13, 2009
Lithium-ion battery research and development continues at a fast pace now as it has throughout its twenty-nine year history. This means there is a need for an up to date text on the subject every few years and this book fills that role. With such books there is an urgency to get to print before the material becomes dated, and so the authors and publishers can be forgiven for the odd typographical error.
This book is better than most in its quality and number of illustrations, both diagrams and photographs, which complement the well written narratives. The style of each chapter is reasonably consistent even though each chapter has different authors. This makes the book very readable, particularly as it does not burden the reader with complex and unnecessary mathematical equations.
This is the best and most up to date book on lithium-ion batteries available today. It should be considered a "must have" for researchers and students of the technology. Engineers might be disappointed that battery systems and applications are not as well covered as they were in Nazri and Pistoia's book (which had an almost identical title) but they too might be interested in learning about the technical advances since that particular book was published.
