Very successful introductory electronics book. Features include effective pedagogical use of second color, flexible organization, devices fully covered in one place so that circuit characteristics are developed early. Hallmarks of the previous edition, such as breadth and depth of coverage, current and practical information, and coordination of the physical understanding of electronics with a theoretical, mathematical basis, have been retained.
