Summary: beware.... i have an older version of this exact same text..
Review: beware.. i have an older bersion of this exact same text... and it is all in electron flow... nowhere on the cover did it say it was so...so most of your currents will be coming out of ground.. and going into the source.. (source as in like +12 line voltage driving a cascade of amplifiers.... and all the grounds at the bottom.. ur currents are coming from the ground.. up to the +12 line voltage... althought this is what electrons do.. in real life.. everyone works with conventional flow) also.. since this book is a condensed version of two of his other books.. the topics are coverely slightly... i.e... the only BJT transistor biasing technique the author goes into is the VOLTAGE DIVIDER BIAS.. and even that.. he doesn't go into that much...

Review: Hi, What's the difference between this book and ISBN# 0130163945 ?
They appear to be the same.

Summary: Want to learn ELECTRONICS..........Read this book!!!!!
Review: I am an electronics student and this book is the best. Go ahead, buy this book, or better yet, enroll in RETS electronic school. This is the book they use. That alone should let you know how great this book really is. RETS is the best!!!!!!!

Summary: This book needs more proofing.
Review: I am currently using this book for an Electronics Course. In the first six chapters we have found many mistakes. Some of the questions in the review sections ask you to solve a circuitry problem but leave out vital information. Some of the answers in the back of the book are wrong. It was very disappointing considering the cost of the book.

Summary: I think its a Great Book
Review: I had engineering years ago, but no electronics. I bought the 4th edition of this book and used it for self-study. I think its a very good book. I thought the examples were good and I worked a lot of the problems. I dont't recall many mistakes in the text or the answers. I also thought the section on the oscilloscope was good. I did have to read some of the material over several times to understand it. Chapter 19 Amplifiers and Oscillators was the hardest material to me. There was some material in that chapter that I never could figure out. I learned a lot from this book!

Summary: Excelent fundamental intro
Review: This book is an excelent introduction to electric circuits and some electronics. It presents everything in a very simple and comprehensive way. So if you are initiating in this fiel this book is for you. If you have readed the review below, let me say that there is no problem with these book, because the reality is that electrons move from negative to positive terminals. And because electrons make current you can think of current moving to positive side, or you can think reversely (like the convention) this doesn't matter, this doesn't change the analysis.

Summary: Best book for electronic technicians.
Review: This book is very helpful for anyone interested in troubleshooting electronic circuits. You don't have to go to college to learn electronics because this book has two years worth of college inside. I give this book five stars for it being such a useful book.

Summary: Beware the current flow. . . .
Review: This book uses the actual flow of electrons to depict current (minus to positive), as opposed to the conventional view that current flows from a positive terminal to the negative terminal. This proved to be the books undoing. I could not find justification for this current model in the description, the table of contents, or the forward of the book. I was extremely disappointed.
