Microelectronic Circuits, Fourth Edition is an extensive revision of the classic text by Adel S. Sedra and K. C. Smith. The primary objective of this text remains the development of the student's ability to analyze and design electronic circuits, both analog and digital, discrete and integrated. Fundamental developments in modern technology, particularly the increased emphasis on integrated circuits and the profusion of advances in digital electronics, require that engineers today be aptly equipped with knowledge of these concepts and techniques. In this edition, the authors present these concepts and techniques earlier on in the text and in greater detail than in previous editions.
Features
A Digital Electronics Emphasis
This edition fully integrates the fundamental concepts of digital electronics into the first five chapters, and also devotes two complete chapters (13 and 14) to digital electronics at the end of the text. These provide a complete introduction to both analog and digital principles for a modern introductory course on microelectronic circuits.
The MOSFET
The material on MOSFET has been entirely rewritten to reflect the shift toward integrated circuit technology and the vast number of changes in MOS IC design.
Device Physics...Just in Time
Sedra/Smith integrates device physics into the chapters as needed and where appropriate.
SPICE: Not just how, but why and when
SPICE has been incorporated not only at the end of the appropriate device chapters, but also at the end of most chapters throughout the text.

Oswald Chambers, a Scotsman who converted to Christianity in his teens under the ministry of Charles Spurgeon, has been affecting Christians with his devotional words since My Utmost for His Highest was first published in 1935. This acknowledged classic contains 365 daily readings that take heady doctrine and make it practical, realistic, and intensely personal. With humor and humility, Chambers speaks plainly to the common man struggling with devotion to Christ in daily living. Worldly cares and self-serving desires begin to lose their appeal as Chambers aides the reader in transforming his mind by viewing life through the instruction of God's Word. Richard Halverson, former chaplain of the United States Senate, attests to this: "no book except the Bible has influenced my walk with Christ at such deep maturing levels." This is Chambers's chief desire, directing the reader to "shut out every other consideration and keep yourself before God for this one thing only--My Utmost for His Highest... determined to be absolutely and entirely for Him and for Him alone." --Jill Heatherly.

With the novelistic vividness that made his National
Book Critics Circle Award finalist Queen of Scots "a
pure pleasure to read" (Washington Post BookWorld), John
Guy brings to life Thomas More and his daughter Margaret—
his confidante and collaborator who played a critical
role in safeguarding his legacy.
Sir Thomas More's life is well known: his opposition to
Henry VIII's marriage to Anne Boleyn, his arrest for treason,
his execution and martyrdom. Yet Margaret has been largely
airbrushed out of the story in which she played so important
a role. John Guy restores her to her rightful place in this captivating
account of their relationship.
Always her father's favorite child,Margaret was such an
accomplished scholar by age eighteen that her work earned
praise from Erasmus. She remained devoted to her father
after her marriage—and paid the price in estrangement from
her husband.When More was thrown into the Tower of
London,Margaret collaborated with him on his most famous
letters from prison, smuggled them out at great personal risk,
even rescued his head after his execution. John Guy returns
to original sources that have been ignored by generations of
historians to create a dramatic new portrait of both Thomas
More and the daughter whose devotion secured his place in
history..

Upon publication, Charles Darwin's The Origin of Species excited much debate and controversy, challenging the foundations of Christianity, nonetheless underpinning the Victorian concept of progress. It still evokes powerful and contradictory responses today. Peter Bowler's study of Darwin's life, first published in 1990, combines biography and cultural history. Emphasizing in particular the impact of Darwin's work, he shows how Darwin's contemporaries were unable to appreciate precisely those aspects of his thinking that are considered scientifically important today. He also demonstrates that Darwin was a product of his time, but he also transcended it by creating an idea capable of being exploited by twentieth-century scientists and intellectuals who had very different values from his own..

An in-depth understanding of electromagnetics is important to all electrical engineers regardless of specialization Iskander presents the phenomena associated with electromagnetic fields and waves without bogging down the reader with equations and mathematical relations, keeping emphasis on the interesting subject and exciting applications of electromagnetics. The text describes the properties of the static electric and magnetic fields in terms of their charge and current sources before introducing Maxwell's equations. Additional features include a detailed description of reflection and refraction of plane waves of oblique incidence on a dielectric surface, a detailed introduction to antennas, comprehensive treatment of transmission lines, and an introductory section on numerical techniques. Many examples are used in each chapter to demonstrate the physical interpretation of vector operations and electromagnetic field quantities..

• Why are so many of today's supermen superclueless?

• Why are so many ambitious young women unable to find boyfriends as successful and independent as they are?

• Why do so many men prefer the escapist digitized world of SPIKE TV, Jackass, and Grand Theft Auto to the reality of their own lives?

In an eye-opening exploration of contemporary American manhood, The Decline of Men shows how men are struggling to redefine what being a man means in today's world. Their confusion has led to rampant male malaise, which has left many men feeling alienated and disconnected. Unable to communicate their frustrated thoughts or emotions effectively, too many guys are slacking off and opting out of their manly obligations, producing an entire generation of men who are ditching their own potential and failing the moms, wives, and girlfriends who love them.

The Decline of Men is a wake-up call to this distressing state of affairs. As award-winning journalist Guy Garcia reports, rather than working hard to achieve top grades or a promotion at work, too many American males squander their energy tracking their fantasy football league scores or mastering the latest video game. Men drop out of school at a far higher rate than women and are far likelier to die early because of poor health habits. Even the male Y chromosome is said to be at risk of disappearing altogether one day.

Packed with startling statistics, informed by pop culture, and narrated in the entertaining style for which Guy Garcia is known, The Decline of Men sheds light on a problem that has wreaked havoc on the American family and urges men and women to look past the gender wars to address this national emergency together.
