Increasing the awareness of the connection between physics and practical electrical problem solving is the main aim of this book. It achieves this by making the connection between fundamental physics and some of the most common practical electronic problems which engineers encounter. Other books tend to treat topics in isolation rather than compining them together in order to solve a real-life problem. Each chapter is of this unique book ends with further problems and fully worked solutions to help the student understand. The book contains seven selective topics which can be studied in isolation, such as Fibre Optic Technology and Electromagnetic Conduction. Mathematical theory is kept to a minimun; only the necessary equations required to solve the problems are presented, but each symbol presented in clearly defined.
