Description
Batteries for Portable Devices provides a comprehensive overview of all batteries used in portable electric and electronic,
as well as medical devices. These range from the cellular phone to portable CD and cardiac pacemakers to remote micro-sensors. The author
looks at the behaviour of batteries in the conditions encountered in the above applications. Information on the performance of the most

on topics rarely discussed in the field, such as battery collection, recycling and market trends.
