Sommario/riassunto

Circuits overloaded from electric circuit analysis? Many universities require that students pursuing a degree in electrical or computer engineering take an Electric Circuit Analysis course to determine who will "make the cut" and continue in the degree program. Circuit Analysis For Dummies will help these students to better understand electric circuit analysis by presenting the information in an effective and straightforward manner. Circuit Analysis For Dummies gives you clear-cut information about the topics covered in an electric circuit analysis courses to help further your understanding of the subject. By covering topics such as resistive circuits, Kirchhoff's laws, equivalent sub-circuits, and energy storage, this book distinguishes itself as the perfect aid for any student taking a circuit analysis course. Tracks to a typical electric circuit analysis course; Serves as an excellent supplement to your circuit analysis text; Helps you score high on exam day. Whether you're pursuing a degree in electrical or computer engineering or are simply interested in circuit analysis, you can enhance you knowledge of the subject with Circuit Analysis For Dummies.

Sommario/riassunto

In Franciscan Wealth, Giacomo Todeschini provides a critical and objective study of Franciscan economic theory. As promoters of a rigorous and evangelical poverty, the Franciscans were paradoxically led to investigate all forms of the economic life between that of extreme poverty and that of excessive wealth, distinguishing carefully between property and temporary possession the use of economic goods.

Sommario/riassunto

While conventional similar books focus on medical science and social aspects, this book emphasizes computing science and engineering design. This feature can help with both industry development and academic research. It book explains in detail both entire telehealthcare engineering system and individual hardware components. For example, it has circuit design details on ECG /EEG sensors. Highlighting basic principles and deep research development (R&D) details, the book focuses on two important design aspects: medical sensor design and medical signal processing. Their principles can be directly used for practical product design.
