Great explanation of electrical theory.
First book I've ever read that went completely into a batteries inner workings. We've all seen the water pipe analogy. Author takes it to a new level. Numerous discussions on multi-meter usage - testing - trouble-shooting. Author seems to spend as much time talking about "automotive" systems as he does marine. 502 page book - first 244 are electrical - the rest mechanical. Excellent book
