Edward Frank Book (born September 23, 1970)[1] is an American-New Zealand former professional basketball player. Listed at 211 cm (6'11")[2][3][4] and 112 kg, Book played the centre position.[5]

Playing career

Born in Buffalo, New York,[6] Book was educated at Canisius College,[7] but came to New Zealand in 1994 to play in the NBL. He was consistently one of the best post players in the league, winning Outstanding Forward in 1996, Outstanding Kiwi Forward in 2002 and named to the All-Star Five both years. He played in every NBL season between 1994 and 2007, winning a championship with the Nelson Giants in his final season.[8]

Book debuted for the Tall Blacks against China in 2002, filling the one available naturalized player spot under FIBA rules. He earned hero status during the world championship campaign after stepping into a starting role to fill in for Sean Marks. Book's three-point shooting ability made him a difficult match-up for opposing centres. Book helped New Zealand to a silver medal at the 2006 Commonwealth Games and announced his retirement from the Tall Blacks immediately after the final.[5]

Coaching career

Book served as an assistant coach for the Nelson Giants in 2013 and 2014.[9]

In March 2022, Book was appointed an assistant coach of the Canterbury Rams.[10] He continued on with the Rams as an assistant in 2023.[11]

Personal life

Book and his wife Lisa have three children: Josh, Amiee and Nic.[12][13] All three of his children play basketball, while Lisa is a former national league guard and junior Tall Fern.[12]

As of October 2018, Book was a teacher at Waimea College.[12]

Multiple-emitter transistor

A multiple-emitter transistor is a specialized bipolar transistor mostly used at the inputs of integrated circuit TTL NAND logic gates. Input signals are applied to the emitters. The voltage presented to the following stage is pulled low if any one or more of the base–emitter junctions is forward biased, allowing logical operations to be performed using a single transistor. Multiple-emitter transistors replace the diodes of diode–transistor logic (DTL) to make transistor–transistor logic (…

Carbon arc welding

Carbon arc welding (CAW) is a process which produces coalescence of metals by heating them with an arc between a non-consumable carbon (graphite) electrode and the work-piece. It was the first arc-welding process developed but is not used for many applications today, having been replaced by twin-carbon-arc welding and other variations. The purpose of arc welding is to form a bond between separate metal pieces. In carbon-arc welding a carbon electrode is used to produce an electric arc between th…
