Dhawan, The version I have is the Second Edition, Surface Mount Technology Principles and Practices by Ray P. Prasad from Chapman & Hall and ITP (International Thomson Publishing). ITP has an Internet address in the book: http://www.thomson.com Chapman & Hall have an Internet address at: http://www.chaphall.com/chaphall.html or http://www.chaphall.com/chaphall/electeng.html for Electrical Engineering Hope this helps.
