Editorial Review:

Product Description:
The math theory is developed in slow, simple stages and is directly applied to the solution of real problems. This method is backed up with 'CHECKUPS' which act as a motivator, and 'BRUSHUPS' which review the mathematical concepts immediately necessary for the continuance of the electrical development and applications.

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Not the best, but not bad
This book contains everything that you need to learn the subject. However, IT HAS MANY ERRORS IN EQUATIONS AND ANSWERS TO SAMPLE PROBLEMS! The author or publisher just didn't take the time to check for mistakes as well as you would expect from this type of book. Also, I feel that the book is a little disorganized, and jumps around a bit too much for my taste. Also, the formating could be updated as well. Not many terms are defined in bold, nor equations seperated from the text very well. It kinda all blends together. Again, I think that the book teaches and contains all that you would expect it too, I just think it needs some modern touces to bring it into the same class as most "modern" textbooks. (It seems like the appearance and formating are the same as they were in the first edition, except any errors and typos have been fixed in the following editions.)

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - For what it is, it's quite good
This is the book for you if you are struggling to understand how to apply the basic laws of electronics: Ohm's, Thevenin's, Norton's, Kirchhoff's, etc. This book starts from basic arithmetic, works slowly up through fractions, and only winds up at school algebra about halfway through the book. By the end of the book they've touched on vectors, trigonometry, AC power, and Boolean algebra. These more advanced subjects are all treated at a very basic level: the algebra is simple school algebra, the trig is no more than is necessary to understand vectors, the vector math is only there to make phasor diagrams useful, phasors are only covered to make 3-phase power understandable, etc.

The book's has a tilt towards the world of the industrial electrician, rather than that of the electronics technician. A symptom of this is that inductance is covered before capacitance -- motors are more visible than capacitors ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Basic Mathmatics for Electricity and Electronics
This is without a doubt one of thee most detaild but easiest books to follow in the field of elecronics. It gives detailed information on everything from the very basic resistors, and Ohm's Law, to Thevenin's Theorum. I can't say enough about this book, it is my bible for everything I do. I use it as a study guide and as a referance for those awkward times when I get confused. I love this book.
