3.0 out of 5 stars Money better spent elsewhere......................, November 19, 2001

This review is from: Active Electronic Component Handbook (Hardcover)
For the price of this book, I wouldn't recommend purchasing it. The book does contain some good information, but only if the author went into more depth with each subject. I know that would have increased the size of the book, but maybe making a "Book1" and "Book2."

If you're that bored, than by all means, you can skim through this book, but as for a reference, I don't think so. After skimming through the various subjects and material, I haven't opened the book since!

This book would be better used for a person who wants to learn the basics of active electronic devices, but not to be used as a guide to do actual design, etc.

Very limited use of equations gave this book a good head start. As a book mainly used for reading, I wouldn't want to have a ton of equations like your grandpa's EE books.
