The Digital Information Age: An Introduction to Electrical Engineering

Rating:
Summary: EE lite
Review: Despite the authorship of a Yalie, this textbook serves as an excellent introduction to the wonderful world of electical engineering for the liberal arts student. It is mostly useless for those already familiar with the basic concepts behind signals and systems. Nevertheless, the majority of the population that is unfamiliar with the world of EE could definitely benefit from this text. I personally found very easy to understand, almost childish, but that is because it served as the text for a much harder course at Princeton. The reason the course at Yale which this book was made for is so popular is because it is a complete gut class. Although I am inclined to write this book off, the unfortunate lack of tech-savvy among much of the populace necessitates this book. It should provide a cure for most who read it.
