5.0 out of 5 stars The BEST Basic Electronics book available, August 8, 1999

By	101science.com "101science.com" (Atlanta, GA USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Mathematics for Grob Basic Electronics (Paperback)

This is simply the best of all basic electronics books. It is easy to understand and will give you a solid background in all areas of basic electronics. There is no wonder why major colleges, trade schools and other learning institutions select this book as their basic electronics textbook. I recommend it highly.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent! A must have in your electronics library., July 16, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Grob: Basic Electronics (Electronics Books Series) (Hardcover)

This book is a must have if you are interested in studying electronics. Grob really knows how to expain things. There are chapter summarys and extensive self test. I love this book. It was one of my text books many years ago in college. Some how or another over the years I misplaced it. The price may be a little steephat might sound steep to some but it's really worth it if your serious about educating yourself in the feild of electronics. It also makes a excellent reference for those of us that don't have photographic memories.

5.0 out of 5 stars Basic Electronbics, Bernard Grob, October 6, 2000

By	Ing. Ralph Hauke Moran (Panama, central America) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Grob: Basic Electronics (Electronics Books Series) (Hardcover)

Being a retired engineer but still doing research work, found myself in need of refreshment courses. Bernard Grob's book is a magnificent work of printed text, in art, illustrations, composition, academic technology, and up to the state art in electronics. I cannot put it down for another day, it is so well written and beautiful in colored illustrations. It carries you all the way through to three phase generators, electronic devices, circuits, digital electronics, and integrated circuits.

Very clear and precise in instruction, you can't miss the point. The illustrations are a great aid to those with short span retention memories. A great book for college, and reference for those of us having to review late in life. Worth more than its present price.
