Overview

Electric Circuits challenges you to develop the insights of a practicing engineer. The fundamental goals of the best-selling Electric Circuits remain unchanged. The text continues to motivate you to build new ideas based on concepts previously presented, to develop problem-solving skills that rely on a solid conceptual foundation and to introduce realistic engineering experiences that challenge you to develop the insights of a practicing engineer.

The 11th Edition represents the most extensive revision since the 5th Edition, with every sentence, paragraph, subsection and chapter examined and oftentimes rewritten to improve clarity, readability and pedagogy, without sacrificing the breadth and depth of coverage that Electric Circuits is known for. Dr. Susan Riedel draws on her classroom experience to introduce the Analysis Methods feature, which gives students a step-by-step problem-solving approach.
