"If you want to quickly learn to solve problems using ANSYS software, this book is a great way to develop the necessary skills to set up problems and become familiar with the software. If your problem happens to be the same or very similar to a problem presented in the book, then this book would be the perfect way to get started quickly." --IEEE Electrical Insulation Magazine
