Designed for use in a one or two-semester Introductory Circuit Analysis or Circuit Theory Course taught in Electrical or Computer Engineering Departments.
Electric Circuits 9/e is the most widely used introductory circuits textbook of the past 25 years. As this book has evolved over the years to meet the changing learning styles of students, importantly, the underlying teaching approaches and philosophies remain unchanged. The goals are:
- To build an understanding of concepts and ideas explicitly in terms of previous learning
- To emphasize the relationship between conceptual understanding and problem solving approaches
- To provide students with a strong foundation of engineering practices.

This book is impossible to use. The homework problems have very little relation to the material and are much harder than any examples presented in the text. It'd be nice to have a professor to clue me in (if mine could figure this book out either...), but you should be able to get more from the textbook itself than this one provides.
The book is sloppily put together and laid out so that most of the time material that should be on one page together end up with half on each side of a page, making you flip back and forth between explanations and diagrams or two connected formulae. This makes it hard to skim for information. The material seems thrown at you arbitrarily. For instance, an explanation of branches, nodes, and loops comes in chapter 4, when that should have been covered from the beginning.
In most areas, the text also leaves out nuances that students with no previous circuit analysis experience need. As an example: The concept of a node and what can be considered a node is never made explicitly clear. The book expects you to make do with the idea that a node is a black dot on a circuit diagram, but at the same time expects you to know when you can reduce nodes in a transformation. Since this book is being used in a first-year electric circuits course with no prerequisite knowledge of electric circuits, all of these ommissions make learning the material much harder than it needs to be. It's as if the text was written by engineers for engineers, not for engineering students. The authors have clearly forgotten what it was like to learn this stuff the first time around, or else they are sadists.
