Electrical Engineering for All Engineers / Edition 2

by William H. Roadstrum, Dan H. Wolaver

Overview

This book is also available through the Introductory Engineering Custom Publishing System. If you are interested in creating a course-pack that includes chapters from this book, you can get further information by calling 212-850-6272 or sending email inquiries to engineerjwiley.com. Designed to meet the problems facing today's engineers. Offers detailed discussions of all electrical engineering systems—instrumentation, control, communications, computers and power. Introduces a new concept by using a specific example and then proceeding to the generalization. Frequent usage of non-electrical analogies enhance comprehension. All chapters contain problems followed by study questions. New problems have been added, particularly easy drill puzzlers.

Editorial Reviews

A revised and updated textbook (1st ed., 1987) providing an introduction to electrical engineering for students and practicing engineers in other disciplines. The volume is divided into three main parts: circuit analysis (six chapters), electronics (nine chapters), and machines and power (five chapters). The material is sufficient to form the base of two 14-week terms. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
