Biography
Anders Andersson is a metrologist for Gustaf Fagerberg AB, a process control company in Sweden. His everyday work includes design and review of measurement systems with focus on uncertainty, safety, and quality. Andersson is active in the Swedish instrumentation organisation ITF and the International Society of Automation (ISA) as President Elect in the Sweden section. He organises seminars and courses and holds lectures on measurement technology at various events and schools.
After an education in electronics, Andersson started his career at SP Swedish National Testing Institute. His work in the fluid flow group has included research, standardisation, certification, and legal metrology. In 2003, Andersson published a book in measurement technology in Sweden: "Mätteknik för processindustrin." For a period of time Andersson ran his own consultancy company, but since 2012 he has been employed as senior advisor at a private company.
"This book provides step by step approach of studying measurements from the practitioner’s viewpoint. It deals with an information for selecting of instrument and measuring the data from the sensing devices. It also covers not only the instruments but also the valve so that the trainee is able to understand the processes around the factory or plant. Lastly, upon the strengths above, this book will be utilized for the fundamental courses and industrial application and is worthwhile to teach to the student who needs to be refreshed."

"The largest advantage of this book is that it describes the essential issues in the process measurement in a concise manner, which is easy to understand even for non-experts of measurement technology."
