Review:

"The editor of this masterpiece, Bela Liptak, is a longtime engineering consultant, a teacher at Yale, and a fellow of the ISA. He is clearly devoted to producing a useful reference . The book is replete with simple explicatory figures and diagrams; well-organized summaries with information on the costs, suppliers, ranges, and inaccuracies of the instruments covered; and practical tips on related subjects such as good instrument maintenance practices. Comprehensive, practical, and well-organized, this book is highly recommended for academic libraries and engineering company libraries. It can best serve as a teaching aid for students, or a reference manual for both new and experienced practicing engineers." - E-Streams, Vol. 7, No. 6, 2004 About the previous editions: "Those [contributors] eventually selected are without doubt among the bestWhether used as a textbook by inexperienced engineers, or as a quick reference book for the experienced engineer-this book looks set to continue to be the main reference to the instrument engineer for the next decade" -Alan Reese in Control & Instrumentation "I have seen nothing with the scope of this handbook" -Roy V. Hughson in Chemical Engineering "In our smaller universe of process control, Bila Liptak is a towering presence" -Terrence K. McMahon in Control
