‘This handbook gives an excellent overview of soldering in general and wavesoldering and reflowsoldering in particular. It presents the information in a readable text that any educated person could understand. This is a must book for all engineering libraries and recommended book for most public libraries’E-Streams, Vol. 3, No 4’This is a book well worth having on one’s shelf in these days of rapid changes and economic stringency.’Wallace Rubin’I would very strongly recommend it on the bookshelf of every production engineer or manager involved with soldering surface mount devices. It is very good value for money and very informative.’Brian Ellis, Soldering and Surface Mount Technology’ Help in planning manufacturing strategy and in making purchasingdesisions relating to consumables and equipment.’ELEKTOR ELECTRONICS
