Customer Review: I bought the book because I was looking to enhance my practical knowledge in the electrical engineering field of study. Not only do I feel that the book helped me to accomplish that, but I gained much more. First, from the first chapter to the last chapter, there were thumb rules, principals,... more info
Customer Review: This book is quite a tome; at over 1000 pages it covers nearly the complete span of topics found in a EE bachelors program! It is soft-bound but sturdy; I have every reason to believe it will hold up the frequent use that I'll have for it! While my Computer Engineering degree covered most of... more info
