This book is designed to meet a felt need for a concise but systematic and rigorous presentation of Circuit Theory which forms the core of electrical engineering.The book is presented in four parts :
Fundamental concepts in electrical engineering, Linear-time invariant systems, Advanced topics in network analysis, and Elements of network synthesis.
A variety of illustrative examples, solved problems and exercises carefully guide the student from basic of electricity to the heart of circuit theory, which is supported by the mathematical tools of transforms.
The inclusion of a chapter on P Spice and MATLAB is sure to whet the interest of the reader for further exploration of the subject-especially the advanced topics.
Intended primarily as a textbook for the undergraduate students of electrical, electronics, and computer science engineering, this book would also be useful for postgraduate students and professionals for reference and revision of fundamentals.
The book should also serve as a source book for candidates preparing for examinations conducted by professional bodies like IE, IETE, IEEE.About the AuthorC.P.
