About the author

Hadi Saadat is a Professor Emeritus of Electrical Engineering at the Milwaukee school of Engineering. Before retirement in 2004 he was a fulltime professor at MSOE since 1988, active in teaching and research in the general area of power system analysis, electrical machines, network theory, control systems simulations, and computer methods in power systems. He has worked in industry and previously taught at Michigan Technological University and other institutions in the United States and abroad. He has an extensive back-ground in power system analysis and engineering education, with publication credits for numerous papers, reports and textbooks in his areas of expertise. He graduated from Faraday House Engineering College in London England in 1963. He received his M. S. degree in electrical engineering from the Illinois Institute of Technology in 1966 and his Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of Missouri-Columbia in 1972. Professor Saadat is member of numerous honor societies including Tau Beta Pi, and he has been a senior member of the IEEE. He is the recipient of the 1996 MSOE Oscar Werwath Distinguished Teacher Awards.

- Reviewed in the United States on August 21, 2013The book by Saadat is really good for the undergraduate students of electrical power engineering. The book is excellent for the students' level: the mathematics is enough and easy to understand. The most unique feature of the book is that it extensively uses Matlab and Simulink for the simulations of numerical problems - both as solved examples and end problems - presented in the book. I certainly would recommend this book as a textbook to my students in the courses of Power System Analysis, and Power System Operation and Control.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 4, 2019A very well written book. The author explores the contents with matlab/simulink which is a good tool to teach power system concepts. I'm very satisfied with this book and with the seller.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 4, 2021This book is well written, I am through Chapter 5 and have found only two errors (extremely low by today's standards). The concepts are fairly difficult, so it helps to have a lecture to go along with the book. The biggest strength of this book is the extensive library of Matlab code included on the CD, they go along with the book and are even mentioned in the example problems. After working 4 hours to hand-solve a complex problem, it is satisfying to witness Matlab verify your work in seconds.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 21, 2014This book includes the very essential theories, calculation methods and simulation by means of Matlab Power System Toolbox regarding Electrical Power System Analysis topic. I also notice this book is used as one of the the main reference books or textbooks of Electrical Power Engineering Degree Programs in many universities.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 11, 2016It is an excelent book with plenty of information about power systems and practical Matlab tools. I think it gives a little more than tradicional undegraduate books, even suitable for graduate students.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 25, 2018Poorly written with lots of errors especially in the homework problems
- Reviewed in the United States on November 23, 2012I am a graduate student at Power Engineering and still using this worthwhile book. Dr. Saadat covers almost all of the useful topics in power systems in this book well; and absolutely easy to understand. If you want to work or study in power, I strongely recommend you to have this book as a nice reference!
- Reviewed in the United States on March 21, 2019Bought it cos I prefer having a hardcover book to hold. Been useful for the past 2 years of my post graduate studies (my major is power engineering)
