4. Barely okay
   It… gets the job done. It certainly isn’t “good” and it is RIDDLED with typos. But… It’s a textbook.

5. Well writen and comprehensive
   There is a lot to like about this book. It provides excruciatingly detailed coverage of basic engineering theories, written in a clear, intelligent way. The author does an effective job of tempering the extensively technical content with a friendly writing style that is never flip or insulting to the reader. I also appreciate the abundance of examples, illustrations, and diagrams, which support the text well and are easy to read. Pertinent code samples are shaded in gray, which enhances readability. Diagrams are clear and and are supported with well-written callouts. Each chapter concludes with a summary of its content and several practice exercises. Although such practice is certainly valuable, I would have liked to see an additional appendix with “answers” to the exercises so that readers could check their work and benefit from the author’s expertise. Without such author feedback, the exercises are less effective as learning tools. Overall, I see this book as a potentially valuable textbook. I recommend it with some caution to everyone — although with patience, determination, and a commitment to learn, they, too, may find the book very beneficial.

6. This is certainly not “An Introduction”
   If you are a novice EE student, never buy this book. This is not an introduction in the sense we usually think. In a word, terrible!
