Reviews'Another electronics textbook that became an international best-seller ... the book is renowned for presenting the techniques that circuit designers actually use.' IEEE Spectrum, "A lovely book, it covers a wealth of electronic topics in a very readable style." Richard Morin, Sunexpert, 'Far and away the finest book on the subject of electronics … in the last decade. I cannot recommend this book highly enough to anyone whose research or experiments require some electronics.' Optical Engineering, "A delightful book...The circuits actually work, the schematics are all readable." Review of Scientific Instruments, "Far and away the finest book on the subject of electronics ... in the last decade. I cannot recommend this book highly enough to anyone whose research or experiments require some electronics." Optical Engineering, 'Another electronics textbook that became an international best-seller … the book is renowned for presenting the techniques that circuit designers actually use.'IEEE Spectrum, "This book provides a painless way to learn about electronic design. It is also a good read for those already experienced in electronics." EDN (Magazine Edition), 'The best self-teaching book and reference book in electronics ... The beauty and fun of electronics shows through.' Radio Communication, "Another electronics textbook that became an international best-seller... the book is renowned for presenting the techniques that circuit designers actually use." IEEE Spectrum, 'Full of clever circuits and sharp insights, but with a surprising minimum of mathematics … The depth is genuine, as is the richness of examples, data and apt tricks.'

Optical Engineering, 'Full of clever circuits and sharp insights, but with a surprising minimum of mathematics ... The depth is genuine, as is the richness of examples, data and apt tricks.' Scientific American, "This book is filled with a tremendous diversity of valuable information. More importantly, this book is a joy to read...It's not at all like studying--it's too much fun." EDN (News Edition), 'The best self-teaching book and reference book in electronics … The beauty and fun of electronics shows through.' Radio Communication, "..it comes as close as any book we've seen to fulfilling the promise inherent in its title...written as though to educate the novice, but practicing engineers will encounter many useful tidbits they didn't know, hadn't thought about, or had long forgotten." Analog Dialogue, "The best self-teaching book and reference book in electronics... The beauty and fun of electronics shows through." Radio Communication, "...a refreshingly simple, practical and comprehensive textbook on the subject of electronic circuit behavior and design...one of the few contemporary practical reference handbooks on electronic design basics." Physics in Canada, 'Another electronics textbook that became an international best-seller … the book is renowned for presenting the techniques that circuit designers actually use.'

I cannot recommend this book highly enough to anyone whose research or experiments require some electronics.’Optical Engineering, ‘The best self-teaching book and reference book in electronics … The beauty and fun of electronics shows through.’Radio Communication, "The second volume carries on une grande tradition as well as adding 400 new pages to the original (already massive) text. It is, without doubt, the book for the practical engineer. No cerebral theorizing here, no long sections of abstruse mathematical derivations; just page after page of solid empirical engineering. It is also light hearted and anecdotal, with some wonderful pages of bad ciruit 'howlers' that the authors have encountered." John V. Hatfield, IJEEE

Edition DescriptionRevised edition
SynopsisThis is the thoroughly revised and updated second edition of the hugely successful The Art of Electronics. Widely accepted as the authoritative text and reference on electronic circuit design, both analog and digital, this book revolutionized the teaching of electronics by emphasizing the methods actually used by circuit designers -- a combination of some basic laws, rules of thumb, and a large bag of tricks. The result is a largely nonmathematical treatment that encourages circuit intuition, brainstorming, and simplified calculations of circuit values and performance. The new Art of Electronics retains the feeling of informality and easy access that helped make the first edition so successful and popular. It is an ideal first textbook on electronics for scientists and engineers and an indispensable reference for anyone, professional or amateur, who works with electronic circuits., This is the thoroughly revised and updated second edition of the hugely successful The Art of Electronics. Widely accepted as the single authoritative text and reference on electronic circuit design, both analog and digital, the original edition sold over 125,000 copies worldwide and was translated into eight languages.

Asian Edition
This review is for the Asian Edition. It looks like it is the complete contents, which is what I was mainly interested in. That's not an issue. But be aware that the reason they can sell this version so cheaply is that the physical product is inexpensively made. The covers are slightly more than heavy paper, the pages are thin and probably won't stand up to hard use, and the binding is at best adequate but also will not stand up to hard use. If you're looking to make an investment in a reference book that will last for years, buy the expensive hardcover edition. If all you're after is the knowledge contained, the Asian edition will do.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

A great book for an engineer!
Not for anybody but an EXPERT! I thought at over $100 this would be an all inclusive text on electronics from start to "finish", but you better have a couple of years of formal training to make sense of it. NO WHERE NEAR enough basic info. If you are an engineer....or genius, it may be for you.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Great For the "Not such a beginner"
This is a fantastic book. I don't recommend it for someone completely new to electronics and electricity. But after you get your feet wet, it will answer many questions you develop earlier on in the learning process. Highly recommended.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
