Very confusing and long explanations to very simple and basic concepts.

Clear, concise, beautiful book on the topic of digital logic and how computer technology can be built.

It was alright. My professor forgot to update his syllabus, and so I ordered this edition from 2008. Even considering that, this edition was all over the place and lacked a coherent order.

I'm using the 5th edition for my class, and I need to post this review somewhere because this piece of junk is one of the worst textbooks I've ever had. For visualizing and understanding difficult concepts, this author makes a pitiful attempt. Words take up about 90% of the textbook when there should be tons of diagrams. You end up wasting hours reading long and wordy blocks of paragraphs and not being able to visualize anything he's saying.

I knew that hardware was my weakness, so I studied this entire textbook from cover to cover in the holiday period before the computer hardware course so that I would be prepared. How did that turn out? Somehow my grade for that course turned out to be my worst in my entire time at university! I appreciated the diagrams that show the flow of bits, but perhaps this installed some false confidence in me and not enough real understanding.

Very dense, but great diagrams.

is a good book.

ok

[Mgt.Sarandia · Rating 2 out of 5]

Poorly written, broken sentences, confusing qualitative descriptions.

Lacks diagrams, tables and examples.

No solution to exercise problems which are written in an overly obscure manner.
