The Art of Electronics
Paul Horowitz is a physics professor at Harvard University, where he created the Laboratory Electronics course in 1974, which evolved into The Art of Electronics. He has written over 200 scientific articles and reports, advised extensively for industry and government, and designed various electronic and photographic tools.
Winfield Hill has worked for a variety of companies, including Harvard University's Electronic Design Center and Sea Data Corporation. He is currently the Rowland Institute for Science's Director of Electronics Engineering, where he has designed over 250 electronic equipment.
The third edition of the very successful The Art of Electronics has been extensively reviewed and updated. It is widely regarded as the most authoritative single book on electronic circuit design. In addition to new or improved coverage of many topics, the third edition includes 90 oscilloscope screenshots illustrating the behavior of working circuits, dozens of graphs providing highly useful measured data of the type that is often buried or omitted in datasheets but is required when designing circuits, and 80 tables (listing some 1650 active components) enabling intelligent choice of circuit components by listing essential characteristics (both specified and measurable).
The new Art of Electronics maintains the informality and ease of access that helped make previous versions so successful and popular. It is a must-have reference and the gold standard for anyone working with electronic circuits, whether a student or a researcher, a professional or a hobbyist.
