This particular book runs about 180 pages, but that is deceiving as the book’s format (A4 size) is about twice the size of most soft cover books.

It is an unusual book, not discussing what you can do with tubes, how to use them in circuits, operating parameter calculations, or that sort of thing. Instead, it is solely devoted to factors that decrease useful service life or cause catastrophic failures.
