passing around
I love the book and it has been passed to three other people already. Anyone that likes implements to do odd jobs and those that were used by our ancestors, will love this book. Perfect book for the person that is trying to be self sufficient on a small farm or acreage.

A classic work
If there should at all be one point against this book, then it is that it is a priced high (at least in my country). However I found that the text was worth the investment. This book is one of those must-haves for every electronics engineer. The text is presented in a way that will appeal to any student as well as working professionals, and the least one can say is that it is extremely ...

Intensive and extensive
If you are an EE sophomore/junior or senior and want to buy a book on semiconductor physics or devices that is both comprehensive in its depth and coverage of topics, I'd highly recommend this book. Its explanation of the working of FETs is very lucid and takes you all the way up to III-V HEMTs; similarly derivation of drift-diffusion/continuity equations for BJTs are explained in great detail ...

Good overview of linux device driver programming concepts
This book takes a hypothetical device driver and explains the concepts nicely. It provides various fundamentals one needs to know before writing linux device drivers, and valuable information like concurrent and race conditions, and gives ideas for debugging problems in real drivers. It is worth read and I liked it. I had already some experience in kernel programming before reading this book, and ...

Great Book
Great book. Couldn't put it down. Caveat: I am an engineer, so a fantasy novel about what happens when an uber-engineer goes bad was very appealing. Very English sense of humor in the book.

Good practical guide to electronics
I am an instructor and find all of Floyd's books to be excellent...the problem is that many students like the ones in this forum are ill prepared in algebra, trig, basic calculus and just plain old problem solving, plus some don't read English well enough. Let's face it, a lot of [people] are trying to become technicians and engineers when they should be preparing themselves for fast food ...

The book introduces fundamental principles and goes on to illustrate ingenious solutions. The sourcbook successfully eliminates the need to re-invent the wheel during every project. I look forward to thoroughly understanding the text and implementing the solutions presented. Highly recommended for the inquisitive mind, the junior design engingeer and any person with an interest in how things ...

Best Linux device driver book yet
I've been frustrated by many other Linux kernel and device driver books. The authors often make assumptions about the readers knowledge and gloss over areas that can be quite confusing. To some extent, that's unavoidable: the Linux kernel is monstrous and very complex, and the hardware that drivers control can also be dark and mysterious territory. I really appreciated this books ...

Excellent Basic Introduction for Engineers
This is a welcome 2nd edition of Sze's basic introduction to the technology underlying modern conventional semiconductor devices. The first edition of 1985 served the needs of its time admirably, but the 17 years since have seen much progress in the field, especially in the area of fabrication technology. It should be stressed that this text is an introductory text, covering the basics well, but ...

What a gem!
This book is a boon for gardeners, farmers, or anyone who likes to tinker in a toolshed. Gates, boats, sheds, fences, tools... you name it, you can learn how to make it. The devices here stem from the early days of American farming, when things were made to last. Charming, practical, and over six hundred pages, this book is a real bargain!

Explains "Animal Design" in a Remarkably Readable Style
One of the most readable biology books I've ever come across. While it can easily be used for an undergraduate course in animal physiology and evolution, Vogel's text is humorous, (obscure references, funny quotes, and puns abound, adding to the text rather than detracting from it), but also covers a wide range of topics with clear explainations. The chapters are well structured and the table ...

help for the hardest transitional subject for undergrad EE students
For both physics and electrical engineering undergraduates alike, the one to two semester courses you take in electronics shall probably be a difficult transition regardless of how well you did in your circuit analysis course. This is largely due to the fact that nobody tells you WHY this subject is important (to produce nonlinear transfer functions & to perform power amplification- neither which ...

Logical, organized, thorough, and clear
This is for the 1986 2nd edition, Device Electronics for Integrated Circuits, ISBN: 0471887587. I have not looked at the recent 3ed. The fundamentals in this "1980's vintage" 2ed. text haven't changed, and therefore it is still relevant. In recommending this text, I assume you have already briefly encountered device physics in a class or in a bit of self-study, that you have an elementary grasp ...
