"Power System Analysis" by Grainger & Stevenson
(OP)
I am looking at buying "Power System Analysis" by Grainger and Stevenson. This book seems to have mixed reviews, with the suggestion that an earlier edition (by the late professor Stevenson) may be a better book.
Is anyone able to give an opinion or recommendation on either book, or possibly suggest an alternate text on the subject?
Regards

I guess you can take that however you'd like -- either Grainger and Stevenson is really good, or everything else I used was really bad. From comparing it to other power systems textbooks, I'd say it's one of the better ones though.

Transmission lines
System modeling
Symmetrical components
Unsymmetrical faults
Power system stability
I found that does not have good samples for load flow and for the step-by-step-solution of the swing equation. Also when modeling synchronous machines neglects saliency (which is acceptable in the most of the times), and the part about System Protection is basic.
