This is a great transmission rebuild and repair manual from ATSG.
For the record, the group of trannys in this book are all similarly designed electronically controlled units. They're full auto with front-wheel drive trans, multiple planetary gear sets, torque converters, five forward speeds and more. The distinguishing characteristic is each has a different name based on the assembly line from which the unit came from. General Motors calls it the AF23/33-5. The folks over at Infiniti christened this trans the RE5F22A. Meanwhile, it's referred to as the AW55-50/51SN over at Volvo.
The manual opens with some outstanding cutaway views of the unit, followed by an extensive locator for all the internal elements, and a comprehensive component and shift solenoid application chart. From there you get general descriptions of gear ranges, a diagnostic trouble code list, transaxle dis- and re-assembly procedures, and a range of rebuilds that include C3 assemblies, F2 rotation, control valve body, B4 servo and more.
This is a great point-of-reference manual targeted towards the professional and academic. This and all books from ATSG belong in transmission shops and automotive schools, on the shelf of rebuilders and auto shops, and would make a great gift to anyone that wants to find out if they should attempt a tranny rebuild operation. But regardless of whose hand it ends up in, this is a studied and thorough rebuild manual for a specific trans designed for finding information quickly.
But we'd expect no less from ATSG and their trans manuals. They are a leader in automatic transmission service information and support throughout the industry.
