Book Review: Introduction to Electric Circuits (3rd Ed.):

Some mathematical background knowledge of calculus and rotational theory is assumed for the early chapters. More rigorous mathematical equations are derived and developed later in the book. A proof relating to the p-n junction at equilibrium is given in Appendix B. Through The Essence of Solid-State Electronics, the author has fulfilled her aim of producing a concise (and affordable) introductory test for science and engineering undergraduate study. In doing so, she has created a highly recommendable book which, at the very least, presents detailed theory in a clear and compact manner and, if fully utilised, will lead to a thorough understanding of that theory and stimulate the reader's desire for more knowledge.
