U.A. Bakshi’s book is primarily aimed at undergraduate students of electronics and communication engineering, electrical engineering, and related disciplines. The author adopts a bottom-up approach: starting with the fundamental building block of linear ICs—the operational amplifier (op-amp)—and progressively moving toward complex applications. The “extra quality” of this text lies not in esoteric theory but in its clarity, logical flow, and the seamless integration of circuit analysis with real-world design considerations.
