Now completely updated for today?s technology with easy explanations and presented in a more user-friendly format, this third edition helps you learn the essentials you need to work with electronic circuits. All you need is a general understanding of electronics concepts such as Ohm?s law and current flow, and an acquaintance with first-year algebra. The question-and-answer format, illustrative experiments, and self-tests at the end of each chapter make it easy for you to learn at your own speed.

 Clear and Concise book on electronics May 27, 2008
Louise Curry (Seattle, WA)
31 out of 31 found this review helpful
I am a little slow when it comes to electronics so I was surprised to find how easy it is to understand and grasp the principles that are discussed in this clear and concise self-teaching guide. It is a step-by-step guide that puts forth a reasonable amount of material, then sort of steps back and asks you questions about what you've just read. In this way, the book engages the reader more thoroughly than a lot of other books I've seen on this subject. (My husband is a computer programmer and owns quite a few books on elelctronics, circuit design, etc.) While the book is excellent at precise explanations - good for beginners - my husband and a few of his computer buddies found the book interesting as well. Overall, a great guide for the neophyte electronics person as well as for the more experienced...
An electronics classic, new and improved May 13, 2008

I owned this book about ten years ago when I was studying electronics in college. It was an absolutely essential resource then, so when an "All New" version came out I wanted to take a look. Would this just be a new cover on old material? I was delighted to find that that was not the case. Not only have the pages of the book have been redesigned, making it easier to find what you need, but the explanations of concepts have been made much clearer, and the writing style and examples have been much improved. If you are new to electronics this is a great way to learn. If you're seasoned, this is a reference you should have on your shelf. What else can I say--go out and buy it!
Socratic-like format August 23, 2008

My husband wrote the following evaluation of this book. "As a former scientist (who now reviews theatre), I liked the authors' Socratic-like question-and-answer format for teaching this otherwise terrifying topic. It asks the thousand and one questions that need to be asked, in the right order, gives you a moment or two to come up with something, then instantly shares the right answer for quick comparison with your own impulsive thought waves. If you start at page one, relax, take your good old time with each and every question, you will emerge 12 chapters later with an amazing and practical grasp of electronics."
Good introduction to the subject for novices May 18, 2008

I've got a very basic understanding of electrical stuff, but not enough to make myself happy. I wanted to to know more, but I don't have time to go take a class. I figured a self-teaching book might be the answer for me, if I could find one that I'd be able to understand. So, I called a friend who has some background in the subject, and she suggested this book.
It's got great step by step problems you can work, along with self-tests to help you determine how you're doing. The explanation of concepts and the book's layout make it easy to understand.
I think this book is for people with a basic knowledge of electronics and algebra who want to expand their horizons, but, if you've got that, this book easily walks you through understanding the equations needed for understanding circuit design. I found it easier to understand than most other books I considered.
All new electronics, self-teaching guide May 29, 2008

This is an incredible book. Well written, with great examples of the topic in discussion. If you are a student of electronics you will probably find you text falls short in areas, this book fill those gaps. A great reference book to accompany those formal texts. When you finish your formal academic classes you will want to divest yourself of old texts, this one you keep. You can easily go back over topics if you find you need to review, with clear examples to refresh the mind.
You will not be disappointed with this purchase.
