Focusing on the unique characteristics of digital natives, the book explores how those born after 1980 navigate a technology-driven world. It examines their distinct attitudes toward education, marriage, work, business, health, and religion, highlighting the profound impact of digitization on their lives. As they face an overload of media messages and differing skill expectations, this analysis sheds light on the cultural shifts and societal changes that define their experiences compared to previous generations.
The book explores the transformative impact of technology on global society, emphasizing its role in connecting devices and people across nations. It highlights how technological advancements have reshaped daily life, driving economic, environmental, and social growth. Additionally, the text examines the significant changes technology has brought to businesses, enhancing operations and addressing contemporary challenges faced by various industries.
Alexander and Sadiku's fifth edition of Fundamentals of Electric Circuits continues in the spirit of its successful previous editions, with the objective of presenting circuit analysis in a manner that is clearer, more interesting, and easier to understand than other, more traditional texts. Students are introduced to the sound, six-step problem solving methodology in chapter one, and are consistently made to apply and practice these steps in practice problems and homework problems throughout the text. A balance of theory, worked examples and extended examples, practice problems, and real-world applications, combined with over 468 new or changed homework problems for the fifth edition and robust media offerings, renders the fifth edition the most comprehensive and student-friendly approach to linear circuit analysis. This edition retains the Design a Problem feature which helps students develop their design skills by having the student develop the question as well as the solution. There are over 100 Design a Problem exercises integrated into the problem sets in the book.
Designed for the standard sophomore- and junior-level course in electromagnetics, Elements of Electromagnetics, 3/e, continues the highly regarded pedagogical tradition established by its successful previous editions. It offers students the most lucid and interesting presentation available of fundamental concepts and applications in electromagnetics. Revised and updated, this third edition adds a new chapter on modern topics covering microwaves, electromagnetic interference and compatibility, fiber optics, and more. A solutions manual accompanies the text.FeaturesDT Begins with vector analysis and applies it gradually throughout the text, avoiding the frequent interruptions that occur when mathematical background is interspersed sporadically throughout a textDT Incorporates many helpful pedagogical features including chapter introductions and summaries, boxed formulas, multiple-choice review questions, and thoroughly worked-out examples followed by practice exercisesDT Treats mathematical theorems separately from physical concepts, making it easier for students to grasp the theoremsDT Devotes an entire chapter to modern computer tools used in electromagneticsDT Motivates student learning with more than 100 illustrative examples and over 600 figuresDT Provides a balanced presentation of time-varying fields and static fields, preparing students for employment in today's industrial and manufacturing sectors
