This book is intended for a hands-on engineer who needs back-of-the-envelope tools to develop design parameters and develop a means to conduct sanity checks. The true value of the book, however, is to raise the awareness of the design team on various aspects of the design that leads to developing a more reliable product. -James Feine, President, USI Ultrasonic, Houston, Texas, USA
