'The Art of Electronics: The x-Chapters' expands on topics introduced in the best-selling third edition of 'The Art of Electronics.' The new edition, some 30% longer than the first, has new sections on topics from very high-voltage to very low-noise, plus a whole new chapter on sensors (acceleration, displacement, distance, humidity, light, pressure, sound, strain, temperature, and vibration). Think of 'The x-Chapters' as the missing pieces of 'The Art of Electronics,' to be used either as its complement, or as a direct route to exploring some of the most exciting and oft-overlooked topics in advanced electronic engineering. This enticing spread of electronics wisdom and expertise will be an invaluable addition to the library of any student, researcher, or practitioner with even a passing interest in the design and analysis of electronic circuits and instruments. You'll find here techniques and circuits that are available nowhere else!

Paul Horowitz is Professor of Physics and of Electrical Engineering, emeritus, at Harvard University, where he originated the Laboratory Electronics course in 1974 from which emerged 'The Art of Electronics.' In addition to his work in circuit design and electronic instrumentation, his research interests have included observational astrophysics, X-ray and particle microscopy, and optical interferometry. He is one of the pioneers of the search for intelligent life beyond Earth (SETI). He is the author of some 200 scientific articles and reports, has consulted widely for industry and government, and is the designer of numerous scientific and photographic instruments. Winfield Hill is by inclination an electronics circuit-design guru. After dropping out of the Chemical Physics graduate program at Harvard University, and obtaining an E.E. degree, he began his engineering career at Harvard's Electronics Design Center. After 7 years of learning electronics at Harvard he founded Sea Data Corporation, where he spent 16 years designing instruments for Physical Oceanography. In 1988 he was recruited by Edwin Land to join the Rowland Institute for Science. The institute subsequently merged with Harvard University in 2003. As director of the institute's Electronics Engineering Lab, he has designed over 800 scientific instruments. Recent interests include high-voltage RF (to 15\,kV), high-current pulsed electronics (to 1200\,A), low-noise amplifiers (to sub-nV and pA), and MOSFET pulse generators.
