- provides a detailed analysis of solder and soldering action; purpose of flux and relevant flux types for any application; classification of assembly variants; assessment and maintenance of solderability; and soldering process defects and causes
- includes new sections on Ball Grid Array (BGA) technology and the hot opic of lead-free soldering
 
Review of the first edition:
'This excellent book clearly explains soldering processes, solder, flux, cleaning and quality control, as they apply to printed circuit board assembly. [The book] deserves a place on the desk or bench of everyone involved in the practical business of modern machine soldering in electronics.' - ITRI Journal
