"While there are many heat transfer books that have been published, this one provides clear and concise information and solutions, for both numerical and analytical problems, and can be very useful for setting up numerical problems with a well-known, widely available software- Excel, making solutions to fairly complex problems accessible to nearly anyone with a modern computer rather than only those with access to expensive modeling software packages. This alone makes this book a good choice to learn about heat transfer basics." --IEEE
