The Wild West days of the dot-com craze are behind us, but e-business strategy remains a largely uncharted frontier. In fact, e-commerce seems more bewildering than ever, now that many of the strategic maxims that the Internet bubble was built on have been proved false. To help you get a handle on the revolutionary technology that has survived the collapse, Nirmal Pal and Judith M. Ray have collected articles by researchers and executives, including many from their home base, the e-Business Research Center at Pennsylvania State University. This anthology constitutes a solid and well-researched book, which has sufficient gravitas (and jargon) for an academic and enough practical information for an entrepreneur. The multiple authors sometimes overlap as they dissect various e-business approaches, but all offer worthwhile ideas. We [...] recommend this book to executives at any company, since Internet technology is now ubiquitous, and distinctions between old economy and New Economy are fast falling by the wayside.

This is a wonderful collection of leading edge research and practical advice from experts in the field of e-business, e-commerce, and e-"anything". The authors and editors have created a very timely set of e-business thinking, imperatives, and recommendations, as well as practical and real life examples to cement the concepts. I highly recommend this book!

This is an excellent book on diverse aspects of e-business. The book offers great insights from a collection of experts. There are important nuggets from various topics ranging from e-business metrics to personalization to collaborative commerce to regulatory issues. The book provides useful frameworks for analysing e-business issues. I personally liked the fact that this book is applicable to both old economy and new economy companies. Despite the challenge of synthesizing a wide array of topics, the authors have done a commendable job of integrating the chapters. I highly recommend this book for all managers.

The various authors examine "key themes" that intersect all manner of changes now occurring during what they characterize as an "information revolution": free agency, compressed supply chains, co-opetition, obliteration of boundaries, e-leadership, the elimination of hierarchies, emergence of electronic marketplaces ("bazaars"), club membership, and finally, "trust brokers" who serve as "an incentive and penalty mechanism to uphold the `digital order' in global, real-time electronic markets." The material is presented and then developed by within 14 chapters. In Chapter 1, for example, Ghadar and Leonard "deliberate on how the digital economy is forcing a fundamental and permanent shift in the way enterprise strategies are developed, and in the process raise significant new challenges for managers. In Chapter 7, Bhargava and Lee "provide valuable insights about emerging technologies and practices that will help organizations remain open and flexible in response to the changing technological environment so that past information technology investments remain useful and valuable in the future." And in the final chapter, Loomis and Gerhard "identify several strategic issues facing executives who must lead or interact within the e-government environment." All manner of forces are driving the expansion and consequent complexity of the "digital frontier" and at an ever-increasing velocity. Here in a single source are a range and diversity of perspectives on this process. The editors are to be commended on the selection and presentation of the 14 separate but inter-related essays. I also appreciate the "About the Contributors" section which identifies dozens of supplementary sources to consult for those to wish to explore specific issues in much greater depth. Those who share my regard for this book are urged to check out Profit from the Core, written by Chris Zook with James Allen, which suggests a number of growth strategies which are also worthy of careful consideration.

This book consists of two parts (its not formally laid out that way, it just naturally organizes into two parts). The first part is a qualitative introduction to integrated semiconductor electronics (with emphasis on transistor junctions). The second part focuses on solid state quantum physics with emphasis on optical as well as electrical properties. There is also a smattering of material on super conducting materials and some basic material about how a digital computer works. The author's intended audience is the high school student or first-year college student who wants to pursue a degree in the sciences. An alternate audience is the informed layman who wants to be up to date at a qualitative level with recent advances in electronics and future directions in research and development.

I believe the book is well written for the intended audience. Turner has an easy-to-read style, and he manages to explain things (generally) in a technically accurate way without the use of mathematics. Without the mathematical details this book is not what you'd expect in a design reference - and that's not what it's intended for. But it is an excellent book to read in advance of a rigorous quantitative class on the subject. I think it's much easier to understand physical phenomena in mathematical detail if one first obtains a qualitative "feel" for what's going on.

Turner opens his book with two short chapters on matter and the origin of conductivity. He spends the next few chapters describing p-n junctions, how they are used to make transistors, and issues that limit their size and speed. Along the way he shows how transistors are used in computers both in the fabrication of basic logic elements, and also in the venerable "flip-flop" memory cell. His descriptions are clear and concise, making liberal use of figures and diagrams so that the concepts can be grasped with no particular pre-existing skills in physics or electronics.

The explanation of present semiconductor physics sets the stage for later discussions about the motivation for semiconductor devices at the quantum level. He does a good job of illustrating the fact that quantum-dominated semiconductor devices will not simply be miniaturized versions of the devices populating current integrated circuits. The physics would not allow it. Rather, they will be unique devices that are designed and custom tailored using quantum theory from the ground up. The result will be new devices that have similar - though often dramatically different - operating characteristics, and that are orders of magnitude smaller than present devices, as well as faster.

In illustrating the classical and quantum semiconductor circuits, Turner does a nice job of laying out the basic ideas behind these devices. In qualitative prose, he explains the exclusion principle, how it applies to fermions, and how the exclusion principle in conjunction with quantized energy states results in many of the phenomena that we observe in semiconductor devices. Turner's description of the optical properties of semiconductors flows naturally from earlier discussions. He describes the basic ideas behind a laser, though in this regard I found the descriptions somewhat lacking. Other interesting groundwork is provided in his descriptions of tunneling and Compton pairs (which are involved in super conducting).

A nice feature is the glossary of terms, along with a nice list of further reading material and a good index. The book is also well illustrated throughout, with figures that add considerably to one's level of understanding. I'd recommend this book to anyone interested in a qualitative introduction to solid-state physics, electronics, or semiconductor optics. I found it enjoyable to read and rich in the sort of qualitative imagery and description that makes learning so much more enjoyable.

This book is a great refresher of concepts that are driving many of our modern semiconductor devices. It does not get into heavy equations or overly complicated scenarios.

This book gives sound, complete and comprehensible explanations for a number of solid state devices (pn diodes, FET and bipolar transistors, laser diodes, superconductors, Josephson junctions, etc). This book contains the best (most comprehensible) explanation I have ever read on the theoretical operation of bipolar transistors.

Turton has done a wonderful job descibing the technicalities of today's computer/electronic technology. His descriptions allow the lay-person to understand the current technology and to understand where the future is taking us - probably to the Quantum Dot - and other devices. I highly reccomend it for anyone interested in the nanotechnology field as a primer

It is one of the finest books you will see on QM and if you are from the electrical engineering stream with semiconductor physics as your major,no text perhaps shall serve you better.The striking aspect of the book is the physical insight it gives into highly abstract theories of QM and the illustration of that theory with a relevant example from the engineering/physical world. Mathematical results we take for granted just as another interplay of the numbers are attributed to some very definite law of nature,for eg the unobservability of absolute frequencies in the probability density function of linearly superposed states is a case in point.Rather than leaving the mathematical expression as a difference of two frequencies he goes onto explain it and also draws an analogy between Electromagnetic waves and the point where the classical limit and the analogy breaks down.This is just one example out of the many scattered throughout the text.Any one with a working knowledge of QM and some introduction to semiconductor physics will immensely benefit from it, though physicists alike, I think can draw much information from the material presented.I hope this book has greater circulation.No wonder the author was awarded the Nobel Prize in physics for his seminal work on semiconductor heterostructures.

This is the only quantum mechanics book I've ever seen which doesn't skimp on theory and yet which treats the subject from the perspective of somebody who might actually have to use it to solve problems. Many books of this depth would simply present the abstract theory, but Kroemer always maintains a connection to the application of whatever he's explaining. What's remarkable is that he does so without having to water things down much. It's a shame this book didn't get more attention: it really should've become a classic for anybody in applied physics (i.e. the vast majority of physicists and electrical engineers).

I feel it is an ideal book to be used by guys who want to USE quantum theory in their research. I have found the presentation ideal for someone with an undergraduate course in quantum mechanics. The concepts are built solidly, with physical insight. The language is crisp and there is an air of authority in the explanation of many concepts.

This book is fantastic. It is the only book of its kind in that it *explains* quantum theory as well as introducing the full mathematical bra-ket formalism. It also gives the best explanation of multiparticle hamiltonians that I have seen. Most lower level books skip these topics, and upper level books introduce them without much explanation. It covers potential wells and how they apply to electrons in solids (solid state physics) as well as the harmonic potential and many applications in solid state. Most QM books cover this stuff too, but this book actually explains clearly why you should learn this stuff. It has a true physics feel to it, rather than the mathematical treatment of most senior level and 1st year grad texts on QM. It is the perfect book for someone in engineering who is taking quantum mechanics. I also think physics major who takes QM using Liboff, Shankar, or other similar books would benifit greatly using this a companion.

If you have no quantum background you may want to start with Eisberg and Resnick's book, which I also rec'd highly. It is at a slightly less mathematical level, but is a great physics book and covers a very broad range of modern physics.

All i can say is that either the Amazon service, the delivery time and the item were really excellent, i even got the item few days before the estimated delivery date.
Thank you

The book is in great condition and was ok for the price. Ad i couldnt find it in any of my university book stores

The author (SD) claims that this is a physics book written for engineers. Maybe that explains why, unlike the authors of most physics books written for physicists, he doesn't seem particularly concerned with elegance, concision, abstract generality or showing how clever he is in this book. Apparently, his main concern is to help you understand stuff. Not only that, but he's chosen some very interesting stuff to tell you about.

The narrative arc of the book is to show you how to get from a particle in a box to Ohm's Law, as instantiated in nanoscale transistors. The path to doing this is already laid out in the first chapter, using a "toy" level of analysis. The next nine chapters lay out building blocks for attacking the problem using Green's function (GF) techniques, which are a bit more modern and versatile than the transmission formalism favored in the past (including by SD in a previous book). The whole picture is put together in Chapters 11 and 12, followed by an appendix that shows (albeit quite tersely in comparison to the rest of the book) how the same problem is dealt with using a second-quantization (2Q) GF formalism. The fact many pieces of this arc are repeated at successively deeper levels of analysis is very helpful. So too are SD's "big picture" introductions at the beginning of each chapter, and at the beginnings of the longer subchapters.

Throughout, SD pauses to describe in words and pictures the physics behind pretty much each term of each equation -- a de-mystification that most authors of physics texts seem to avoid as if it were blasphemy. I was especially impressed when SD used these opportunities to allude to some deeper and more general issues, such as how you get from time-reversible equations to irreversible physics. In fact the whole book serves as an applied introduction to non-equilibrium stat mech, a cutting-edge subject usually reserved for abstract theoretical treatment, or the last few pages of a conventional textbook. SD also foregrounds some basic points that are often buried in or missing from other texts, such as that the Schroedinger equations do not explain why atoms emit light, and why "optical" phonons are called that. (This latter point had really bugged me when I took a course in solid state years ago, so while reading this book I re-checked 7 or 8 solid state texts within reach, including Ziman, and found that only Kittel and Ashcroft & Mermin bothered to explain this point, and so casually (K) or vaguely (A&M) that you'd hardly notice.)

I was especially struck by the book's attention to modeling transistor contacts and how they interact with the channel. In the last few years this has become a big issue in organic electronics, as researchers have found that many aspects of device behavior were far more dependent on the contacts than they'd previously appreciated (kind of a let-down after going to the trouble of synthesizing some exotic channel material). That said, though, note that the book's POV is restricted to inorganic crystalline semiconductors, and I don't claim to be smart enough to see how easy it is to extend the book's methods to organic devices.

A couple of caveats. Although my copy says it was "reprinted with corrections 2006", there are still a lot of typos (none too terrible, though). More significant is that many of the exercises rely on your having access to MATLAB or some other math program. If you're not attached to an academic institution or didn't aquire a copy of such a program while you were so attached, those exercises probably will be inaccessible to you (unless you're willing to spring for ~ $10E2.6-$10E3.3 for a personal copy, depending on the program). Contrary to another review, there isn't anything about fabrication techniques, despite brief references to quantum dots and nanowires. And while the blurb on the back cover says "No prior acquaintance with quantum mechanics is assumed," and although SD does start from a description of the Schroedinger equation in Chapter 2, the QM intensity accelerates rapidly from there. So I wouldn't rely on learning the relevant QM from this book. (However, it might be possible to enjoy this book before you've finished a class in solid state.)

For a next edition, I'd look forward to (i) a somewhat less rushed description of transmission formalism in sec. 9.4 (one of the few places in the book where EEs may have a real advantage over others), (ii) a wordier discussion of the 2Q formalism in the appendix, and (iii) a more explicit discussion of Fock space methods, which seem to play an uncredited role in the discussion of multi-electron systems in Chap.3. But even as-is, this is a very stimulating and enjoyable book.

For over thirty years, Green's functions have been used to calculate effects in solid state physics. But usually for pure research, destined to be written up in scientific journals. Here, Datta offers some outreach. There is indeed quite a lot of theory presented. But there is a corresponding emphasis on the latest materials fabrication abilities, including the making of nanotubes and quantum dots.

All these have (presumably) interesting and practical applications. So if you want to design novel devices from a theoretical standpoint, the maths tools developed in the text can be very useful.

This book was very helpful in my introduction to Access, as well as in my review of other Microsoft programs. The tutorials are easy to follow, unlike those in other books I had tried. I recommend this book to anyone trying to learn or brush up on Microsoft programs.

This book is a great reference for the entire MS Office 2000 applications. I needed to learn Access in a hurry and found the section to be precise and informative and to be just what I needed. The tutorial was very good and after completing the exercise, one comes away with a confidence of knowing that they do, indeed, "know" how to set up and run a database.

The book covers Word, Excel, Access, Publisher, FrontPage, PowerPoint, and Outlook. I also needed some clarification in Excel and Word and also found those sections to be just as helpful and informative.

This is a great "quick" book and it does not cover everything. If someone is seeking more detailed information, then they really need to consult another book, which would provide more detailed information. But for the true basics, this book is great!

I am very happy that I invested my money in this book because my students have been using Microsoft Office 2000 and have learned so much because it helps you through the whole learning process step...by...step. It is ideal for classroom instructor led training and for at home self-pace study. Plus the new low price is great.

For those who need to learn Microsoft Office 2000 now, this is the best book to get. The lessons are very easy to follow, with step-by-step instructions in plain English and charts to illustrate examples. You won't be dissapointed at all with this study book!

If you are a Radar engineer, then you already have one or more versions of this book on your shelf. I can't imagine doing my job without it. The question becomes whether or not you should go through the trouble of asking your company to buy it for you or just use the volume you have. I think most of the chapters are the same but I know that Chapter 8, Pulse Compression Radar, has been upgraded. Ducoff's description of stretch processing is concise and relevant to modern Radars. I convinced my company to buy it based on that reason alone.

The day after I bought this book, I made a mistake telling a colleague about it, after which it was very difficult to track it down who has it and who is using it in a team of several Radar Engineers. They had all used it as a definitive reference book on any aspect of Radar design - it covers everything that you need to know and want to know right NOW about a Radar clearly and accurately.

If you are a newcomer and designing a Radar then buy a copy of 'Introduction to Radar' by Skolnik, which has a great source of information for the beginners and up and running Design Engineers, i.e. a good primer.

Buy this book! I spent 3 years overseas(Aviano AB, Italy) in the USAF as an Electronic Warfare Systems tech, If you value information on RADAR fundamentals, you will buy this book. It provides the full range from basic theory to applications requiring integral calculus. You Will Learn from this book! The bulk is focussed on radar applications and theory. There are sections on ECM(Electronic Countermeasures). This is the only book that I have found to compile good information in one place...It IS the HANDBOOK. Yes, it's expensive, but it's worth it. Chip in and get a copy for your unit. For ECM troops, If you value your pilot's lives--READ and LEARN!

This book is a collector's item as well as a gentile introduction to radio electronics for the intermediate to advanced hobbyist, amateur radio operator, or experimenter. The book is also a good text for a quick refresher on network analysis, transmission lines, and antennas although not a rigorous replacement for a more advanced book. The value is in the short, to the point chapters with attention paid on educating the reader without tedious mathematical manipulation. Complex numbers are introduced in a manor that the serious amateur radio operator can appreciate. The book begins with a brief introduction to the history of work contributing to the understanding of modern radio. Progression from component level electronics, progression to network analysis, transmission lines, and later antennas, all chapters meld together in a very well written easy to read text. As stated in the preface, the organization of the book is:

Part I: Electrical Networks
Part II: Transmission Lines
Part II: Radio Antennas
Part IV: Radio Transmitters

Don't count on this book as your only source of theory as you will note, from the first edition date (1962) there are no references to Smith Charts, bi-polar transistors, computers, electronics calculators. Hence, the utility of the book is to provide, primarily, a historic view of the state-of-the-art radio electronics at the time (1962). The book is a joy to read, and fun to remember how a slide-rule works. Incidentally, no slide rule is required and the discussion of slide rules does not detract from the remainder of the text.

This is an outstanding educational text for both those beguining their study of Electrical Engineering and those who what to go back and refresh the fundamentals of some topic. It is clearly written, provides concise well thought out explaination of the topic at hand. The author works hard to provide the understanding of only the mathmatics necessary and does not lose himself or the reader in mathematical proofs. The focus is to provide a empirical understanding of the physics. Extremely well done.
It's value does not age with time.

This is possibly the best book I have ever read on the topic of radio transmission fundamentals. It is very well organized and the clarity of the explanations is outstanding. If you really want to understand transmission lines, antennas and radiation, I highly recommend this book. The book does not rely heavily on mathematics, but instead relies on clear explanations of the basic concepts. I believe this is a must for Hams who want to improve their understanding of transmission lines and antennas.

OK, this isn't my review, but I wanted to be sure that the review from QEX was attached to this title ...

Review by Doug Smith, KF6DX
QEX Editor
(from Jan/Feb 2001 QEX)

It has been said that a good teacher can take the most complex of subjects and boil it down to something even a simpleton can understand. That is a potentially dangerous statement, because what knowledge is left at the end of the boiling may be sublime, yet insufficient for true understanding. Perhaps it is better to say that a good teacher is one who knows what to include in his or her lessons and what to leave out: That is why being a good teacher is so difficult.

Radio-Electronic Transmission Fundamentals is not really a new title, since the first edition was published in1962. We are glad to see that Noble have brought it back into print, though, because Whit Griffith found the above-mentioned elusive balance between theory and commonsense reasoning in his explanations of the basic workings of antennas, transmission lines and RF networks. He begins with a history of great discoveries in electromagnetism. Continuing on to fundamental electronic network theory, he assumes very little expertise on the part of the reader as he asks and answers most of the right questions about electricity. ("What is this thing called 'juice'?" "Why attach all this importance to electric and magnetic fields?")

The bulk of the work concerns itself with showing how electromagnetic field theory neatly predicts many aspects of network, transmission line and antenna behavior. It should prove interesting reading for those experimenters and engineers who want a clearer picture of what makes things tick. Graduate students and working designers may find it insightful. It is perhaps especially useful to technicians in other fields who need a concise introduction to electromagnetism.

Some of the material treats subjects that are now outmoded. For example, very few will gain from the discussion of computation using slide rules; however, an entire generation of mathematicians has grown up without knowing much about them, and even such quaint stuff may prove useful. The section on vacuum-tube transmitters remains a good introduction to the topic.

This book may be more valuable than many undergraduate texts to the electronics experimenter. It leaves out most of the mathematics, thereby avoiding the fog that is often created by rigorous derivations; but it includes just enough math to start working with RF networks and transmission systems. There is even a short chapter on calculus. It is highly recommended for those who want to take their RF knowledge beyond just a rudimentary understanding of simple circuits.

Whit Griffith, N5SU, went to MIT, then worked in the FCC's Boston field office before joining E. F. Johnson. There, he developed RF components and phasing/coupling equipment for AM directional antenna arrays. He also worked at Continental Electronics in Dallas, designing high-power transmitters and serving as their resident expert on antenna systems. He retired in the late 1980s and currently resides in the Dallas area, where he is still active on the amateur bands.

I've read the statistical signal processing and stochastic processes books by Kay, Papoulis, Srinath and Stark & Woods, and this is by far the best book that covers both subject areas in a logical fashion. The text is very clearly written, mathematical notation is easy to follow, and example problems are very worthwhile. I'm currently a PhD student using this book to prepare for my qualification exams, and it's really helping me master the difficult subject of estimation and detection theory.

Though the book does not get much into measure spaces and some of the abstract theoretical fundamentals, it's an excellent engineering reference that's ideal for an introductory class in the subject. My only complaint is that the book is not hardcover.

I agree with the other reviews that this is one of the best books for studying random processes, especially in the context of DSP. I used the book in a graduate level "statistical signal processing" course at the University of London and I found it extremely useful.
It covers everything from the definition of a sample space, AR and MA processes, periodograms to optimal Wiener filter theory. The examples are very clear and they accompany each of the chapters. One point to notice is that you do need to know something about Fourier transforms and also have basic familiarity with probability.

Highly recommended to anyone in the DSP field.

The authors have unleashed the subject of Stochastic Processes using a carefully paced and proven approach of introducing the material using a number of elegant examples where emphasis is to generalize specific results. This quality text will certainly not dissapoint readers who have come to expect high quality from K. Sam Shanmugam and Authur .M.Breipohl .It can be recommended for first course and also for gaduate level courses on the fascinating and challenging subject of Random Processes

This is one of the best books around for studying Random Processes ! The author has also provided a very good introduction to Detection, Estimation and Modelling of Stochastic Processes. I found this book very useful and I'd strongly suggest this book for an introductionary level graduate course. If you want to build a strong foundation in Random Signal Theory, this book is the way to go.. Other advanced texts like Simon Haykin's "Adaptive Filter Theory" will be a lot easier to understand once you study this book thoroughly and work out the exercise problems.

This order was completed just fine. Delivery was prompt and it arrived in good condition. No complaints.

The book is an excellent summary on the topic and more! It provides excellent coverage of state-of-the-art production techniques and the influence of particular procedures and components on device reliability. I suppose that complete newcomers might find it sometimes difficult to understand the background of some contents due to the compact style. However they are rewarded with one of the most comprehensive and up-to-date texts I have ever seen on this subject. Moreover the reader is provided with many references for further in-depth reading. Considering the wealth of information the book provides the author did an excellent job in writing a well readable text.

I would recommend it as a textbook as well as for the experienced scientist/researcher.

This book gives the basic and latest issues in the semiconductor device reliability as well as issues that nails the failure analysts. This book covers all the major issues, including oxide reliability, ESD and electromigration. This book will be and should be considered for the aspring Rel and FA engineers as well as act as a refresher to those hardcore professionals.

I have a filing cabinet full of papers on various aspects of materials reliabilty: solder stress calculations, mechanical behavior, diffusion, corrosion mechanisms, etc. Professor Ohring's book neatly summarizes all of that into one coherent text, covering topics such as electromigration, electrostatic discharge, solder mechanics, corrosion, semiconductor devices and more. But rather than touch on the practical aspects of these failure modes, as do several reliability books I already own, he delves into the underlying fundamental mechanisms involved, providing equations and explanations. This is why I consider Ohring's book a true textbook on the subject. The detailed explanations are valuable to me in that they provide a springboard from which to analyze more complex issues. For anyone involved with reliability of materials in electronics, I highly recommend this book. And one more thing: in some places Prof. Ohring writes with a refreshing informality. For example, he talks about defects and KILLER DEFECTS (his words and capitalization!). I just laughed when I saw that.

I love this book. The writing style is easy to understand, and carries the reader forward in a natural progression. It's a book that can be read straight through. It has great tutorials on VBScript and SQL (although I wanted more on SQL), and a lot of friendly ASP tutorials. Definitely a great book for the library. It's hard to find everything you need to develop a web application in one book, which is why I give this one 5 stars. I can get quick answers, or read through for more complete understanding. I have a lot of ASP books, but this is my favorite due to its completeness and easy, friendly writing style. I love Kris Jamsa books, and now I'm adding Rob Francis books to my Must Have list.

I was very intimidated about moving to ASP.NET. This book's seven lessons on ASP.NET got me up and running the same day! Very easy to understand and follows -- explains the differences you must know to get started.

This is by far the easiest book to understand that I have found for Active Server Pages -- my hats off to Rob Francis (I just bought his Visual Basic book -- I hope it is as good).

I have been trying to use PHP -- Francis makes ASP very easy to understand and shows how to integrate key objects to perform complex tasks. PHP even makes more sense now ... but I am going to stick with ASP.

I am not using ASP.NET yet, so I can't comment on that part of the book.

The ASP material is very good and very easy.

I had never created an active server page before. My Web site had over a dozen after my first weekend with the book. The lessons make the process very easy!
