The Prentice Hall Essence of Engineering Series provides a concise, practical and uniform introduction to the core components of an undergraduate engineering degree. Acknowledging recent changes within higher education, this approach uses a variety of pedagogical tools - case-studies, worked examples and self-test questions - to underpin the student's learning. The Essence of Digital Design has been developed as a concise but complete introduction to digital logic design for undergraduate students of Engineering and Computer Science. After an introduction to the application domains of digital systems, the text describes basic gates, the Boolean algebra underpinning, combinational circuit design, flip-flops, sequential circuit design, and programmable logic devices. The final chapter introduces logic circuit fault testing to detect faults that might have subsequently occurred during manufacture. Proper consideration should be given to manufacturing a working system as well as obtaining a logically correct design - this is something that is often omitted from other texts, but is examined in full in The Essence of Digital Design with design examples given throughout the text.

From the Back Cover
This is a complete, practical introduction to the fundamentals of digital logic design.The book begins with an introduction to the application domains of digital systems. Next, it describes basic gates, the Boolean algebra underpinning them; combinatorial circuit design, flipflops, sequential circuit design and programmable logic devices. The final chapter covers logic fault testing to detect faults that may have occurred during manufacture. Extensive design examples, case studies and selftest questions are provided.For anyone interested in learning the basics of digital logic design.

Not so great,

This review is from: The Essence of Digital Design (Essence of Engineering) (Paperback)
I'm a college freshman taking Electronic Dseign for Beginner's. This book doesn't have all the essential topics covered. At least 40% of the example problems are done incorrectly. Explanations are too brief, also. I don't recommend this book; when I do find a better book, I will post the info. Currently, this book is helping me fail the course more than helping me pass it.
