Another classic is:

S. Nasar and I. Boldea, ``Linear Electric Motors: Theory, Design and Practical Applications,'' Prentice-Hall, 1987, ISBN: 0135368634

This book may be in a local engineering library, but it is out of print. Nasar has a newer book on linear motors that is in print. The entry on Barnes and
Noble is:

Linear Electric Actuators and Generators
