About this product

Product Information

This is the thoroughly revised and updated second edition of the hugely successful The Art of Electronics. Widely accepted as the authoritative text and reference on electronic circuit design, both analog and digital, this book revolutionized the teaching of electronics by emphasizing the methods actually used by circuit designers -- a combination of some basic laws, rules of thumb, and a large bag of tricks. The result is a largely nonmathematical treatment that encourages circuit intuition, brainstorming, and simplified calculations of circuit values and performance. The new Art of Electronics retains the feeling of informality and easy access that helped make the first edition so successful and popular. It is an ideal first textbook on electronics for scientists and engineers and an indispensable reference for anyone, professional or amateur, who works with electronic circuits.

It is, without doubt, the book for the practical engineer. No cerebral theorizing here, no long sections of abstruse mathematical derivations; just page after page of solid empirical engineering. It is also light hearted and anecdotal, with some wonderful pages of bad ciruit 'howlers' that the authors have encountered." John V. Hatfield, IJEEE

    Asian Edition

    This review is for the Asian Edition. It looks like it is the complete contents, which is what I was mainly interested in. That's not an issue. But be aware that the reason they can sell this version so cheaply is that the physical product is inexpensively made. The covers are slightly more than heavy paper, the pages are thin and probably won't stand up to hard use, and the binding is at best adequate but also will not stand up to hard use. If you're looking to make an investment in a reference book that will last for years, buy the expensive hardcover edition. If all you're after is the knowledge contained, the Asian edition will do.

    A great book for an engineer!

    Not for anybody but an EXPERT! I thought at over $100 this would be an all inclusive text on electronics from start to "finish", but you better have a couple of years of formal training to make sense of it. NO WHERE NEAR enough basic info. If you are an engineer....or genius, it may be for you.

    Two words........THE BEST

    Just read the reviews and read the book and work through the student manual......THE BEST. As an electrical engineer who graduated and really knew nothing about the art of circuit design, but plenty about the mathematics and physics...even quantum physics, this book made all of that theory come together in such a pragmatic way. I can honestly say now that I can use what I know, where I was worried before. Speaking to those who may be concerned about the 'high-level' language in a textbook written for students at Harvard, please don't worry. This text was written in such a way that even those Liberal Arts fa$s can read and understand it. :) Seriously though, it is a very plain-language text that gives a 'feel' for what you are doing rather than telling you ...

    Incomparable

    When you first pick it up (the hardcover edition) you will note its weight; this is a very heavy and very thick book. However, I think Bubba from the movie Forrest Gump would know exactly what to say about this book, "dis book knows bout everythang they is to know bout 'lectronics", and Bubba would be right! For anyone studying electronics or anyone who just wants a refresher to shake up the 'ole brain cells, The Art of Electronics absolutely caters to those needs. From voltage and current to microprocessors and briefly touching on spectrum analysis and Fourier transforms, its all here and with appendices from A to K, you know you are getting your moneys worth. As far as which edition to get: I recommend getting the Hardcover US Edition not the softcover international (read the ...

    A good reference text for any experimenter of physics

    I bought this book to supplement the student lab manual [and for a class]. It makes for a great reference book, but it is starting to get a little out dated as they haven't done a new addition since 1989. There have been quite a few new and important electronic devices and circuit elements made since then so it would be nice to have an updated version that keeps the style intuitive and humorous. I do recommend buying the lab manual along with this book if you want to get the gist of things, and then if you want to learn a little more in depth, read into the text. I am a physics student for undergrad and this book is certainly relevant to a physicist as you can learn to design your own experimental devices (both analog and digital) and it also gives the physicist an engineering approach as ...
