[volt-nuts] The Art of Electronics vs. Tietze Schenk

Hi,

I've got the German Tietze Schenk 6th ed. (1983, 850 pages), the latest 
14th ed. (2012, 1800 pages & DVD) and now also the AoE III (2015, 1190 
pages).

The Tietze Schenk served me very well @ university, letting me develop 
several very precise AC and DC current sources from the more or less 
theoretical circuits.. The Tietze Schenk may be more academic and goes 
more deeply into the theoretical background.

The AoE, I did not know before, is much more fun, due to its vivid 
style, and also gives quite good theoretical background, compared to  T 
& S.
But I really dig these "best in class" used cases from the HP 
instruments, for example.

I've learnt a lot from these Fine Arts HP schematics, so this idea of 
AoE is really great.

The AoE III is relatively cheap here in Germany (around 66€), because we 
otherwise have a price binding here, for domestic books.


I'm glad, having both electronic bibles, complementing each other.

Frank
