mark meyers said Five Stars. great !. "Horribly written" according to Kyle K.. This book like all the Sean Bennett books is very poorly written. The book often contradicts itself. Review questions are not also based on material from the current edition as the industry has changed but the the book uses the same questions from previous editions of the book. even when the subject asked is not discussed in most recent edition. there are typos and other issues key terms in the chapters don't have a definition in the glossary the list goes on. Schools should not use Sean Bennett books there are better books out there however we are stuck with this one.. Excellent book Got exactly what I was looking for in this book. The discription given was spot on. It's not a basic intro book. You do need basic 7nder standing of diesel motors. Over all great book and great delivery time.
