About the Author

Ian Sinclair was born in 1932 in Tayport, Fife, and graduated from the University of St. Andrews in 1956. In that year, he joined the English Electric Valve Co. in Chelmsford, Essex, to work on the design of specialised cathode-ray tubes, and later on small transmitting valves and TV transmitting tubes. In 1966, he became an assistant lecturer at Hornchurch Technical College, and in 1967 joined the staff of Braintree College of F.E. as a lecturer. His first book, "Understanding Electronic Components" was published in 1972, and he has been writing ever since, particularly for the novice in Electronics or Computing. The interest in computing arose after seeing a Tandy TRS80 in San Francisco in 1977, and of his 204 published books, about half have been on computing topics, starting with a guide to Microsoft Basic on the TRS80 in 1979. He left teaching in 1984 to concentrate entirely on writing, and has also gained experience in computer typesetting, particularly for mathematical texts. He has recently visited Seattle to see Microsoft at work, and to remind them that he has been using Microsoft products longer than most Microsoft employees can remember. Ian Sinclair is the author of the following Made Simple books: Lotus 1-2-3- (2.4 DOS version) MS-DOS (up to version 6.22) PagePlus for Windows 3.1 Hard drives He is also the author of many other books published under our Newnes imprint.Visit Ian's website at http://website.lineone.net/~ian_sinclair

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Modern Electronics Handbook, 22 Aug 2008
By D. Wilson "wilson479" (England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I have been involved in electronics for around ten years now, various college courses and work placements.

It is fair to say I have read (or browsed atleast) a massive amount of books on this subject area.

I can say without any shadow of doubt that this is the best electronics hndbook on sale at this moment in time.

It covers the same areas as every other handbook writted in the last fifty years (resistors, capacitors, transformers etc.), but is fully updated with very respectable chapters on micro processors, complex programmable logic devices, electronic computer aided design, industry standard design practices plus so much more.

I found this book in my local library and am now looking to purchase it for future refrence's.

I would highly recommend buying this book, or atleast checking it out at your nearest library.
