Book Reviews of Delmar's Standard Textbook of Electricity, 3E
Book Review: TONS of mistakes, typos, incorrect formulas in EVERY chapter!
Summary: 1 Stars
This is an AWFUL textbook. One person in our class has the 2nd edition, and it doesn't have any of these mistakes! The THIRD edition is a piece of GARBAGE! It was so difficult trying to comprehend complex formulas when the examples given arent even correct! Wrong values, wrong, math, wrong symbols, mislabeling...and we're only to chapter 30 so far.
Simple things are OVER covered to the point of exhaustion, but when the chapter on filters came up, there was nothing to give examples of how to figure out how to do the problems at the end of the chapter. Power factor correction is barely glanced upon, and the author gives complex formulas when basic Ohms law could be used instead.
If you use the 3rd edition in your classroom, PLEASE verify with your instructor so you dont struggle with the homework for no reason
