Hi
I’m from Poland and I’m an enthusiast of the electronics, similar to you I think. I want to buy “The art of electronics” by P. Horowitz and W. Hill. But I wonder what edition should I choose, US or international. I know US edition is a hardcover book with pretty quality, but it costs much more. 50-60$ makes a big difference. I dont know what to choose. The images on your site show one page which looks like it was photocopied. Could you say about it more?
P.S. I can’t email to you. Some error occurs.
Regards
I’m happy with my International Edition. While the pages are a bit thinner and some of the images do appear photocopied, everything is very readable and it hasn’t fallen apart yet. With the money I saved I was able to purchase a used copy of The Art of Electronics Student Manual(the original not the International Edition). This workbook has been great and I recommend it. The Art of Electronics is a fairly advanced book–at least for me it is–and the workbook has made it easier to understand some of the material.
Thanks for letting me know about the email, it’s all fixed now.
