Reviewed by G.E. Johnson of Tennessee Technological University, his endorsement states:

Author Antoni Szumanowski of Warsaw University of Technology in Poland has conducted research on hybrid electric vehicles for more than 30 years, providing the most up-to-date treatment of hybrid electric vehicle power trains available today. Hybrid vehicles utilize both an internal combustion engine and at least one electric motor, with applications ranging from large buses to consumer autos. The book discusses plug-in hybrids and the planetary power-splitting transmission configuration that has become popular in current automotive applications.

The work is rich in simulation examples and includes excellent coverage of important components such as traction batteries, electric motors, ultracapacitors, and transmission configurations. The coverage of internal combustion engines is at a level that will facilitate the discussion of hybrid power train technology. The content will be most accessible to advanced students, researchers, or professionals in electrical or mechanical engineering. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Electrical or mechanical engineering collections supporting graduate students and above.
