1.	[no image]	Microeconomics: Coursecompass Access Card from Prentice-Hall Price: $98.89 Customer Review: I had a copy of this book which changed editions between my second and third year of university. I went to the library and compared the old and new editions, and out of the entire 600 pages, only SIX pages had new content. Three chapters had been re-ordered. The rest of the book was identical.

2.		MAKE: Electronics: Learning Through Discovery from Make Price: $20.00 Customer Review: The author uses an outdated analogy of electricity using a water tank to represent the batteries, and its this analogy that probably causes him to get the definition wrong on some physical quantities. I don't think it will cause any problem if your are just interested in hobby use and not interested... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


3.	[no image]	Laboratory Manual for Microelectronic Circuits from Oxford University Press, USA Customer Review: Sedra's text is terse and muddled. If I sought to create a book which was difficult to understand, the first thing I would do is fail to define the terms in an explicit and clear manner. My stepfather, who happens to hold a bachelor's in electrical engineering called the text 'horrible' when he... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

5.	[no image]	Electric Circuits from Addison Wesley Longman Publishing Co Customer Review: In the real world there is no help. I can see why schools use crap books such as this one and I can see why students who have taken this class earlier do better. The problem is students that have additional help such as parents, friends, father-in-laws and thus spend zero money and have well wishers... more info	Customer Rating: 2.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


6.		Teach Yourself Electricity and Electronics, Fourth Edition from McGraw-Hill/TAB Electronics Price: $18.98 Customer Review: One question I had on Chapter 13 is Stan does not describe how to get the frequency by itself in an equation when inductive reactance and inductance is known.

7.	[no image]	Art of Electronics from Cambridge University Press Price: $80.00 Customer Review: Got this book as a reference on electrical components in experimental applications and I am very pleased.

8.		Practical Electronics for Inventors from McGraw-Hill/TAB Electronics Price: $22.35 Customer Review: All the reviewers who point out the numerous errors in the book are absolutely correct. I believe, however, that they fail to realize the true utility of the book by trying to use the book as the main or only source of info. They should realize, instead, that the book intends only to be the starting... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


9.		Fundamentals of Electric Circuits from McGraw-Hill Science/Engineering/Math Price: $138.98 Customer Review: Amazon sent me an international version of this book.

Linear Systems and Signals (The Oxford Series in Electrical and Computer Engineering) from Oxford University Press, USA Price: $109.99 Customer Review: It just so happens that all the actual problems we have to do for our exams in my systems and signals class have zero examples in the book.

24.		Basic Engineering Circuit Analysis from Wiley Price: $121.83 Customer Review: This book was used for Circuits I and II. The content was very disorganized and unhelpful.

27.		Microwave Engineering from Wiley Price: $46.31 Customer Review: I actually had the one written by Ludwig as my RF textbook, which as clearly written as it is, lacks more detail in couplers.

28.		CMOS VLSI Design: A Circuits and Systems Perspective (4th Edition) from Addison Wesley Price: $89.95 Customer Review: While CMOS is the working horse of the electronics industry, there are very few good comprehensive (and readable) books on the subject.
