This fifth edition has been improved with the addition of the following features:

• The use of color brings life to the book and clarifies content
• Improved illustrations and photos
• New material on batteries; communications advances such as cellular phones, lasers, and fiber optics; and a brief history of electronics

A new supplement package accompanying the text consists of:

• Laboratory Manual with CD-ROM to accompany the main text (ISBN 0-13-091889-X)
• Instructor's Manual with CD-ROM (ISBN 0-13-091365-0)
• PH Test Manager (ISBN-0-13-092225-0)

Patrick and Fardo's introductory survey explores electricity and electronics using a highly accessible “systems” approach to enhance understanding of basic concepts. The Fifth Edition is divided into two sections—one touching the basics of electricity, the other an overview of electronics—both featuring several new content additions that reflect the most recent developments in the field.
