 The Art of Electronics January 23, 2007

This book is known as a classic among everyone, who is into electronics. That is all I need to say ;-)
Review for STUDENT MANUAL FOR THE ART OF ELECTRONICS January 20, 2007
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
Excellent inroduction for persons eager to learn how to design useful circuits and they have a background in Physics and Calculus. It is not an engineering course for elecrical engineers but it is useful for non-electrical engineering majors. Studying the text THE ART OF ELECTRONICS and the STUDENT MANUAL FOR THE ART OF ELECTRONICS someone will acquire working knowledge in electronics.
Well Defined January 12, 2007
2 out of 3 found this review helpful
This book is very well defined with its simple understanding lay language terminology. I constantly use it at my professional buiness occupation for designs and meetings as well as for my own personal projects at home and school. I would recommend this book to anyone who is intrested in Electronics or just curious about it. I wouldn't think twice about purchasing the next version of "The Art of Electronics"
Great book January 10, 2007

This book provides both great overviews and significant details. It is packed with useful information for both the neophyte or seasoned designer. Which I'd had this book 25 years ago!

An older book that still retains its value December 24, 2006
4 out of 6 found this review helpful
This book was first published in 1989, and although it definitely is showing its age in the later chapters on microprocessors, microcomputers, and low-power design, in that great strides have been made in these areas over the last 17 years, it is still a worthwhile purchase. It has timeless value in the first seven chapters that focus on transistors, diodes, FET, opamps, active filters and oscillators, voltage regulators and power circuits, and low-noise techniques. Some people have complained about the price, but this book manages to retain its conversational style and still explain the concepts of electronic design much better than textbooks with twice its price tag. If you are an undergraduate electrical engineering student, there probably is no subject that is quite so confusing as designing circuits with transistors and diodes given a certain set of specifications. When I was an undergrad, it seemed like only the children of TV repairmen and the most exceptional students grasped the concept as it was presented in class and in the text we had. This book made matters crystal clear through a series of well-presented straight forward examples in which nothing is left to the imagination.
Even in the later chapters involving digital design and microprocessors, the material may be dated, but the basics are still valid and the material is still worth reading. Might I also recommend "The Art of Electronics Student Manual with Exercises". It is very useful for practicing what is taught in this textbook.
