This widely-respected book stresses fundamental concepts and problem solving, and discusses the material in an understandable and readable way. Numerous illustrations and analogies are provided to aid the reader in grasping the difficult concepts. In addition, independent learning is facilitated by the presence of many examples and problems. Important updates and revisions have been included in this edition. One of the most significant is a new chapter on electromagnetic radiation and antennas. This chapter covers the basic principles of radiation, wire antennas, simple arrays, and transmit-receive systems.

William Hayt
WILLIAM H. HAYT, JR., received his B.S. and M.S. at Purdue University and his Ph.D. from the University of Illinois. After spending four years in industry, Professor Hayt joined the faculty of Purdue University, where he served as Professor and Head of the School of Electrical Engineering, and as Professor Emeritus after retiring in 1986. Besides Engineering Circuit Analysis, Professor Hayt authored three other texts, including Engineering Electromagnetics, now in its eighth edition with McGraw Hill. Professor Hayt’s professional society memberships included Eta Kappa Nu, Tau
Beta Pi, Sigma Xi, Sigma Delta Chi, Fellow of IEEE, ASEE, and NAEB. While at Purdue, he received numerous teaching awards, including the university’s Best Teacher Award. He is also listed in Purdue’s Book of Great Teachers, a permanent wall display in the Purdue Memorial Union, dedicated on April 23, 1999. The book bears the names of the inaugural group of 225 faculty members, past and present, who have devoted their lives to excellence in teaching and scholarship. They were chosen by their students and their peers as Purdue’s finest educators.
