Winfield recommends this book, June 22, 2006
This review is from: Gateways Into Electronics (Wiley-Interscience) (Hardcover)
I'm surprised to see no customer reviews for this book. I have enjoyed my copy for years, and often recommend this book to others (assuming they already have a copy of The Art of Electronics, of course :-).
Peter Dunn has a unique gift for illustrating the engineering theory in complex topics of analog-circuit design, in an entertaining way. The book is filled with short vignettes covering a wide range of targeted subjects. Recommended.

I agree with Mr. Hill, May 26, 2007
This review is from: Gateways Into Electronics (Wiley-Interscience) (Hardcover)
I'm also continually impressed with the high level of the material here---many fine topics and pertinent details not easy to find elsewhere. I wonder what happened to this guy---I have a feeling that he didn't know how to play academic politics as well as he knew physics.
When a very bright friend of mine, with a doctorate in mathematical physics from Cambridge, asked me for a good book from which he could learn more about electronics, I presented him with a copy of Dunn.
I am happy to see that Wiley is keeping it in print. It should be much better known.
