Fundamentals of Electric Circuits with ARIS

Alexander and Sadiku's third edition of Fundamentals of Electric Circuits continues in the spirit of its successful previous editions, with the objective of presenting circuit analysis in a manner that is clearer, more interesting, and easier to understand than the competition. Students are introduced to the sound, six-step problem solving methodology in chapter one, and are consistently made to apply and practice these steps in practice problems and homework problems throughout the text and online using the KCIDE software. A balance of theory, worked examples and extended examples, practice problems, and real-world applications, combined with over 300 new homework problems for the third edition and robust media offerings, renders the third edition the most comprehensive and student-friendly approach to linear circuit analysis. Key: It's all about Alexanders Problem Solving Approach--supported with unmatched quantity and quality of problems--sets this text apart from the traditional circuits textsC.O.S.M.O.S. Solutions Manual, provided to instructors on CD, allows for assignment generation, tracking, and distribution. Instructors also have the ability to edit homework problems. A new four color design program NEW!! Over 300 new homework problems have been added to the new edition, with over 1800 total problems provided in the text. "Enhancing Your Skills" chapter openers in several chapters Knowledge Capturing Integrated Design Environment (KCIDE) software provided on the Online Learning Center leads students through end of chapter problems using the six-step problem solving method, and keeps a record for how problems are solved so students can share and check their work. An appendix on KCIDE has been added to the text.
