Fundamentals of Electric Circuits continues in the spirit of its successful previous editions, to present circuit analysis in a manner that is clearer, more interesting, and easier to understand than other, more traditional texts. This edition includes a balance of theory, worked and extended examples, practice problems, and real-world applications, along with over 580 new or changed homework problems.
Robust media offerings render this text to be the most comprehensive and student-friendly approach to linear circuit analysis. The seventh edition retains the “Design a Problem” feature, which helps students develop their design skills by having them develop both the question and the solution. In the book, there are more than 100 “Design a Problem” exercises integrated into problem sets.
McGraw-Hill's Connect is also available with Fundamentals of Electric Circuits. Connect provides students with an ebook experience, allowing professors to easily assign and assess reading, homework, quizzes, and tests. It also automatically grades and records the student's work scores. Problems are randomized to prevent the sharing of answers and may also have a “multi-step solution,” which helps move the students' learning along if they experience difficulty.
