Abstract
The difficulty in presenting a book about automotive power systems is that they are complex, multidisciplinary technologies, requiring knowledge of mechanics, electrical engineering, and power electronics to be understood. This task was undertaken by the authors who are involved in both the industrial and academic industrial electronics arena. As the main challenge in vehicle electrification consists of replacing enginebased mechanical, pneumatic, or hydraulic ancillary energy sources with electrical energy processed through an electromagnetic device, the organization of this book follows the architecture of an electrical power system for a conventional engine-based vehicle. This is a well-written book with richly illustrated text consisting of 326 figures and 28 tables that achieve a balance between theory and practice. As all of the material is presented at an introductory level, the book is strongly recommended for students and recent graduates who are interested in automotive power electronics activities.
