Providing clear and complete coverage of fundamental plus state-of-the-art topics The Science of Electronics contains many excellent features. The approach is to present the essential elements of digital technology in a very clear and simple format. Concepts are well illustrated by many worked-out examples and figures. In addition to fundamental topics, advanced areas of digital technology are also introduced. The relationship of technology to science is emphasized. Topics include digital quantities and functions; logic gates; arithmetic logic and processes; binary code and data logic; latches, flip-flops, and timers; counters; shift registers; programmable logic; computer basics; and introduction to digital signal processing. For the electronics technician that wants to review the basics; this is an excellent desk reference.

   This is going to be brief…The book walks you through the lab project and asks you to record your observations and/or calculations, but in my humble opinion they could’ve given more detailed instructions with the project setups. In other words, this is where the instructor comes in and fills in the gaps. To get this for personal use is not necessarily a good choice as there are other more exciting books out there, though for school use it is good enough. I own it, I am going for an electronics major, I personally thought this book was good, but not great.

   I like building circuits and playing with electronics. It is one thing to build a circuit board from scratch and solder all the pieces into place and quite another to understand WHY it works.

   I therefore recommend this book if you want to know WHY.

   I found it concise, easy to understand, and well presented. A very organized book which starts from first principles and introduces diodes, then BJT and FET and then Diff amps which is a natural segue into op amps and active filters.

   Plenty of worked examples and exercises to test your knowledge.

   Highschool math prerequisite.

   A very practical introductory book the hobbyist such as myself can understand and appreciate.

   Expensive which is why I gave it 4 stars.
