Inventing the Electronic Century: The Epic Story of the Consumer Electronics and Computer Industries, with a New Preface
Consumer electronics and computers redefined life and work in the twentieth century. In Inventing the Electronic Century, Pulitzer Prize-winning business historian Alfred D. Chandler, Jr. traces their origins and worldwide development. From electronics prime mover RCA in the 1920s to Sony and Matsushita's dramatic rise in the 1970s; from IBM's dominance in computer technology in the 1950s to Microsoft's stunning example of the creation of competitive advantage, this masterful analysis is essential reading for every manager and student of technology.
The Marine Electronics Handbook by Colin Jones, ISBN 1853108820
The electronics systems of modern boats seem to many boat owners like a mysterious science that can only be untangled by high-priced marina mechanics. With this book, boat owners will acquire a clear and usable understanding of marine electronics, and they'll be able to maintain, repair, and add elements to their boats' electronics systems.
Based on the types of questions Jones responds to in his technical columns in Practical Boat Owner and Yachting Monthly magazines, the author provides readers with the most useful information about marine electronics.

Power Electronics Handbook by Muhammad H. Rashid, ISBN 0125816502
Power electronics is a broad subject that deals with every aspect of electronic systems and devices. Any computer, machine, controller, game, etc., that is available today is dependent on the power electronics in those systems and devices to operate. Power electronics systems deal with the process of converting electrical power from one form to another. Power Electronics Handbook is specifically designed for the professional engineer in industry and includes contributions of over 60 authors primarily from industry.
Power electronics is most frequently thought of because of its importance in supplying and converting an uninterruptable power supply to computers. The growth in computational power, communications applications, data storage, and memory systems has put the common layperson directly in contact with power engineering devices and challenges such as surge protectors and power failures. However, the field of power electronics is involved in all electronic devices and sytems. Examples...
