Summary: Learned a shocking amount
Rating: 4
I used this book to learn basic electronics so I could pass an employment test for an open position at my work. I combined this book with a college textbook to learn what I needed to know. This book successfully compresses all the major ideas of electronics into tidy chapters. I found this book easy to read and learn concepts from. However, it fell short on circuit analysis, so I turned to my textbook for that.
Summary: Good for beginners...
Rating: 5
I have a BS in Electrical Engineering. I have been out of school for a while and just started graduate school. Rather than dig back into my old text books I thought I should start slow, something to get my brain working again.
Well if you're like me I definitely would not recommend it. You forget a lot out of school, but not that much...
However, as I read it, I think it would be an awesome book for someone who is 1) Considering engineering 2) About to start engineering 3) Engineering manager who deals with EEs a lot but has no EE background
I kind of wish I had picked it up before I started my degree. It gives you just enough to not bore you.
Summary: Stuck halfways...

This is book is mainly concerned with the theory of electronics, and presents it without getting bogged down in advanced math. However, it does not really explain things - most of it reads like a summary of a more detailed book or an article from an encyclopedia - very dry. Also, I found it rather brief on the practical aspects - here, you will not learn how to read schematics, understand why components are where they are, and take educated guess at how to adapt a circuit for your needs.
In this sense, it is not a practical beginners' book. In my opinion, if you are serious about theory, this is not the book for you, and if you want to do practical projects, you will not find anything here.
Summary: I Got a job
Rating: 5
I studied this book several times. You really need more than one time through the book (or at least I did) for the concepts to sink in. It is very dense with information. However eventually the concepts stuck and when I interviewed for a tech job I got it. I guarantee that without this book I wouldn't have gotten it. Thanks a bunch Stan!
Summary: A great book for junior high students, or...
Rating: 3
I am taking a college level course in EE and bought this book in hopes of deciphering some of my cryptic Hambley text. I think this book was quite a bit low-level for my needs, but it would be an excellent intro for a junior high school student. This book assumes absolutely no knowledge of Physics, or really math for that matter. The chapter questions are all multiple choice and very basic conceptual questions. But, it does touch on a lot of topics, giving a nice broad view of the field. I give this book 2 stars for my needs, but I rated it 3 stars because I think it is probably very good for someone who has no knowledge of basic Physics.作者: cxysy 时间: 2007-12-26 22:04
