Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Refrigeration for pleasureboats
Review: Not very good for practical applications. If you like plenty of theory and equations its great, if you are trying to use it so you could repair and maintain your system it is weak and of not much value.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Exeptional
Review: The best $ I ever spend. After 40 years of experience in the refrigeration trade, This is the best book I got my hand on. It may be at time a little over technical for the average sailer but this is definitlly a must have. Nigel Calder, I like your style.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Not for Dummies, But Very Good Anyway
Review: This book is a little on the technical side and is overdue for a revision, plus a good bit of the material covered is also covered in Mr. Calder's Mechanical & Electrical Manual, but not all of it. We get more detail here. If you want to become one with your refrigeration unit, this is the book for you. It'll help keep you in ice cubes no matter how hot the clime.

Summary: Tech but right on
Review: This book is technical, and without any previous HVAC knowledge, it'll take some review work to put the pieces together. That being said, it will get you from total ignorance to ability to design, order parts for, and build your own onboard refrigiration unit or freezer. This does need revision, as R12 refrigerant has gone by the wayside, and newer products are now used. The components and design elements however, remain unchanged.

If you want to design and build the perfect onboard unit, I'd say you have to have this book.
