Review #1

Very Useful and Interesting

The great thing about this book is that it is an extensive library of working circuits with component values. This provides an excellent service as a reference design for a circuit designer, i.e. a starting point for someone who already has design chops. If you lack design chops, probably better to reference one of the thousands of books written from the perspective of explaining the basics of circuit theory. This book was never intended to be a primer on the basics of circuit theory but instead a collection of reference designs vastly useful to a design engineer.




Review #2

Collection of amplifier circuits, but no theory or design.

This book is just a collection of amplifier circuits from magazine articles and manufacturer databooks. Each circuit is accompanied by a description, ranging from a sentence to a paragraph. There is no discussion of amplifier design or theory, although some of the circuit descriptions contain brief explanations of the topology. I was very disappointed, because I wanted to learn about amplifier design. If you are just looking for a circuit, this book might be of some value, especially since it lists the original sources for all of the circuits.
