1.0 out of 5 stars
This book is an insult to its readers,
By Mat D. (San Jose, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Essential Electronic Design Automation (EDA) (Paperback)
I wanted an overview of this big industry that EDA is and this book sounded perfect... I changed my mind not too long after the first couple of pages.
The book is rather short (200 pages) even with HUGE fonts and useless appendixes (like remind the reader that 1 is "one" 10^0, 10 is "ten" 10^1 and so on) I kept the best for the end, the entire book was written like a kid's book: it's only dialogue!!! (Ms. Newbie (sic) new to an EDA company (Sandbox) talks with other employees). It's a complete insult to anyone's intelligence. Stay away, don't waste your money.

Childishly written - somewhat useful content,
By A Customer
This review is from: Essential Electronic Design Automation (EDA) (Paperback)
The book is written mostly as a conversation between a new employee at an EDA company and various people. It's very hard to read, because the entire time you're repeating in your head "Does the author really think people talk this way?" It's distracting. The content is somewhat useful, if simplistic, so the book doesn't rate a "1".

Well written description of this arcane field,
By bookmanswake "bookmanswake" (Bowie, MD) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Essential Electronic Design Automation (EDA) (Paperback)
Excellent writing and superb Table of Contents - poor index though. Technical and non-technical audience can understand and appreciate this comprehensive review of this important industry.
