It wasn't in Safari when I last checked (last year, right before I canceled my subscription, since I didn't really use Safari like I once had). I looked on the Wiley site for the ISBN and double-checked the title prior to the post.
This book is worth its price, even though it's steep. Here's an Amazon link (wraps):
http://www.amazon.com/Power-System-Design-Telecommunications-Handbook/dp/047168161X/
$80.95 lowest new copy found. I paid more than that for my copy in 2007.
What's interesting here is that this is the third book I've seen on Amazon where the used price is higher than the new; last week I ordered a new paperback copy of 'Pierce's Piano Atlas, 12th Edition' for 30-something dollars, but the used price was like a thousand dollars.... odd. Not that high today, just $118 (versus $37.57 new)... But that's still higher than new (and way OT... sorry).
