1.0 out of 5 stars The regular Schaum's outline is much better, January 13, 2007

This review is from: Easy Outline of Basic Electricity (Paperback)

This book is OK for learning what it covers. Also, considering Gussow's Schaum's Outline of Basic Electricity was last published in 1983, age might also have been a factor. However, the regular Schaum's on this subject just came out in December 2006, and it has been extensively updated and covers the material this book covers and much more, plus it is just as easy to follow as this book is. You get an extra 300 pages of material for an extra two dollars. If you need to learn the material in this Easy Outline, you are going to eventually need to know the material in Schaum's Outline of Basic Electricity, 2nd Edition, so you might as well just buy that one book.

Good book to start learning about electricity. I passed my test but I had to study with other sources. This book was a good complement.

The book is filled with mathematical formulas and number. A crash course indeed. Not for beginners or to read in a lazy day.
I gave it 2 stars instead of 3 because they put 'easy' in the title of the book.
