2.0 out of 5 stars Great as a school textbook otherwise forget it, February 24, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Electronic Troubleshooting (Paperback)
This book is written by a couple of professors not technicians and it certainly shows. If you enjoy reading a college textbook this is for you. If you are looking for real-world tricks, tips, and insight you will not find it here. Why in the world is there a chapter devoted to motors? Why is there nothing about using ESR meters? I read the first 2 chapters then tossed it.

I knew nothing about nothing before this book. It is a great starting point. But if you're serious about it, it's only going to get you started.

5.0 out of 5 stars Just buy it already, March 22, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Electronic Troubleshooting (Paperback)
Remember the old days in school were you were forced to take a quiz at the end of each chapter to make sure you had the basic foundation to move
on to the next chapter? Well the Quiz is back in Electronic Troubleshooting and it works

Now go buy it.
