Description:

For freshman/sophomore-level courses in Circuit Analysis. Using a unique, successfully class-tested methodteaching Direct Current as a special case of Alternating Current this innovative text provides a fresh alternative to the traditional treatment of circuit analysis as two separate segments (one devoted exclusively to DC circuits, the other to AC circuits). By integrating the analysis of DC & AC circuits into a coherent whole, it helps students develop a clearer understanding of the behavior of all components in a circuit, and allows instructors to fit more course into less time.
