| (edmonton, Alberta Canada) April 28, 2002 - 5.0/5 stars |

| 2. | Test questions are great! |
| (Minnesota, USA) February 22, 2002 - 5.0/5 stars |
| This is the only book I have found, on practically any subject, that has so
many test questions. And they are all in multiple choice format. They
aren't too easy or too hard. They really measure how well you know... read full review |

| 3. | A Very Fine Textbook |
| (Las Vegas, NV United States) January 4, 2002 - 5.0/5 stars |
| The book starts simply enough to be of use to beginners and grows complex
enough to help professionals who need a review, such as myself. The tests
are great for highlighting what you need to know. |

| 4. | An excellent intro |
| (St. Paul, MN) July 3, 2001 - 5.0/5 stars |
| This is an excellent intro to this subject. Gibilisco takes you through
the basics at a decent pace. He is very direct and precise, and doesn't
waste your time repeating things (unlike other authors who have less to
say,... read full review |

| 7. | Typical TAB-G/L botch job |
| (Whitecourt, Alberta Canada) November 12, 2004 - 3.0/5 stars |
| Generally books on the TAB imprint-the heir to the old Gernsback
Library-are poorly edited, poorly written, and often irrelevant and
lacking useful information. There are a few exceptions, as they had a few
fairly good... read full review |

| 8. | Good conceptual introduction to the material, not much more |
| (Northport, NY United States) June 11, 2004 - 3.0/5 stars |
| What this book does, it does well; namely, providing an introduction to the
general concepts at work in electrical and electronic circuits. What it
doesn't do, that many people are probably expecting from it, is... read full review |

| 9. | Detailed but not easy |
| (Chicago, IL USA) November 23, 2004 - 3.0/5 stars |
| This is a very detailed book with many diagrams, pictures, and explanations
of systems. However, sometimes the book relies on the reader to know many
of the terms. When you begin through the book it's like... read full review |

| 10. | Could be better! |
| (Minnetonka, MN USA) May 12, 2005 - 2.0/5 stars |
| I should first admit that I have only read the first 1/4 of the book. My
first problem with the book is that it uses symbols for resistors, that
look like two s's, but nowhere provides a key for this symbol. I turned... read full review |
