Captives of Conquest: Slavery in the Early Modern Spanish Caribbean (The Early Modern Americas) Review: Very Thorough, Very High Level - There is not much information on the internet about this book, so I am going to summarize it's contents as succinctly as possible. I ordered this book a couple of weeks ago and it is not EXACTLY what I was expecting, but it's still good. First off, it is written for professional engineers and/or graduate students. It assumes you already know/remember a lot of trigonometry and the basics of electricity and physics. If you're looking for an introduction or how-to manual for installing PV, this is NOT it. As stated in the description, this book goes into great depth of the WHY and HOW everything works, down to the chemistry of how a battery charges/discharges. It is very thorough. Also, nothing is dumbed down. They do not try to make it easy to read. Which is not a bad thing in my mind, just letting everyone know. I don't have an engineering background, but I'm still working through it, with LOTS of help from the web. When I'm done, I'll definitely have a good understanding of everything (if I make it) covered in the book. Lastly, you can't preview the book or see the table of contents, so I thought I'd quickly add them here at the bottom, just so people know what is covered. Ch 1 - Background Ch 2 - The Sun Ch 3 - Introduction to PV Systems Ch 4 - Grid-Connected Utility-Interactive PV Systems Ch 5 - Mechanical Considerations Ch 6 - Battery-Backup Grid-Connected PV Systems Ch 7 - Stand-Alone PV Systems Ch 8 - Economic Considerations Ch 9 -Externalities and Photovoltaics Ch 10 - The Physics of PV Cells Ch 11 - Present and Proposed PV Cells and Systems Review: Recommended for Electrical Engineers - Very informative book about PV systems, design and thoughts behind it. Its not a DIY on how to mount solar panels, but more of an engineering informative book, with alot of background information and details / aspects to consider regarding PV systems. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #4,189,208 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #2,765 in Caribbean History #5,753 in Indigenous History #8,483 in Discrimination & Racism | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 4.3 out of 5 stars (23) | | Dimensions | 6 x 0.8 x 9.1 inches | | Edition | 3rd | | ISBN-10 | 1439802920 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1439802922 | | Item Weight | 1.85 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 288 pages | | Publication date | June 11, 2021 | | Publisher | University of Pennsylvania Press | ## Images ![Captives of Conquest: Slavery in the Early Modern Spanish Caribbean (The Early Modern Americas) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81rD77lh3oL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very Thorough, Very High Level *by R***N on November 22, 2013* There is not much information on the internet about this book, so I am going to summarize it's contents as succinctly as possible.

Answers to questions would be nice. Mathematics and formulas explained in laymen's terms can be added. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/8586983-captives-of-conquest-slavery-in-the-early-modern-spanish-caribbean](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/8586983-captives-of-conquest-slavery-in-the-early-modern-spanish-caribbean) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-07-30*
