| Certainly Sevick's books are some of the very few available on the 
topic, but I'm not sure I would call them "definitive works". I know 
that may appear to be heresy, but I've now "invested" in 3 of Sevick's 
books, and I have to say I'm less than impressed with some aspects. 
For example:
* Pretty well all of his measurements relate to the differential-mode 
performance of baluns - I can't find any significant measurements on 
their CM performance
* His understanding of what drives CM current at a coax-fed dipole's 
feedpoint is flawed 
* He seems to think you can wind a 4:1 Guanella balun on a single core

 The definitive work on baluns are Jerry Sevick's (sk) books.  See 
"Baluns and Ununs".  He has many experimental examples, specifications 
and results.
