'Horowitz and Hill' has been the bible for teaching and practising electronics for thirty seven years and went into a second edition in 1989. Since then rumours of a third edition sprang up every five years or so. Most of us who used the second edition believed the third would never come. Now it's here and it is no dissapointment. It's up-to-date and is straightforward to read either as a continuous course or as a reference manual. In the later parts the ground will be new to many but the paths are clear. With its companion volume, Learning the Art of Electronics, CUP have set the standard of up-to-date texts on electronics.

I'm not an expert, but this book seems very thorough and well written. I would say that if you are totally new to electronics then this might be a bit hard-going unless you have a fair understanding of maths/physics, but if you already have a vague understanding and want a great reference book to learn from then this is perfect. It's not super maths-heavy (obviously you cannot totally avoid maths with electronics), and has been written by someone who is very passionate (and very knowledgeable) about the subject. Although I have been reading it in bed, I wouldn't recommend that as the book is quite heavy and makes you legs go dead after a while.

The definitive guide to practical electronic circuit design, with just enough background theory to get you through the tricky bits, all written in a very readable style. Lots of circuit diagrams, graphs, photos, and examples. The third edition is updated to cover a lot of new techniques and devices not around when the second edition was published twenty-something years ago!

I used the second edition to help me through my Electronics degree and beyond. This edition brings the book up to date. It was recommended by the University.
