Can anyone recommend a good book or reference materials for an introduction
to stepping motors?  I am primarily interested in computer controlled
stepping motor driver circuits.  I am basically familiar with the idea
that most motors are stepped by alternating current to either two coils or
by alternating polarity between the coil leads, but that's about it.  How
are stepping motors reversed?  Any info would be appreciated...
