• This Is A Bad Printing... 13 August, 2005
I want to confirm what others have said about the 3rd edition. The print is not great. I should be clear that so far, I haven't seen anything that was so bad that couldn't eventually make out the text (in context), but I shouldn't have to squint and stare.
Yes, this copy is brand new direct from Amazon.
If the good Walter Jung comes back here, I want to recommend that he not use the small bold print, which is the worst. ex: pg.12 "Summary of Summing-Inverter Characteristics" is pretty much a squiggly black blob. Fig 1.9 has unreadable bold text, etc. Finally, the spec sheets are useful I'm sure, but not if they're not readable.
I hope Jung chews out Prentice hall for this mess, and that the 4th edition is better.

• Great Book If You Want To Know Everthing About Op-amps 30 August, 2005
This book has it all. Not too complex where you need calculus but a good understanding of algebra is helpful. The book covers all the details of parasitic variations not just the typical applications of using Op-Amps. A must for those that design circuits using Op-Amps.

• Nice Book. 16 May, 2006
I liked the level of detail contained in this book, it has all the details and covers a variety of types of op-amps. I noticed the back cover shows the price as $24.95 and would buy it for that price but not for $45.00 as currently offered.

• Excellent Book, Lousey Printing 15 January, 2005
I'm holding in my hand a copy of the third edition of Mr. Jung's book, the "IC Op-Amp Cookbook." It just arrived from Amazon.
As an earlier reviewer has pointed out, the printing quality is very poor, particularly in the diagrams. Characters printed in smaller font sizes have a tendency to fill in with ink, so that digits like "8" or letters like "d" tend to be nothing but little blobs. ("Vcc" tends to look like "V**".) The manufacturers' datasheets in the back of the book are nearly unreadable. ("1*00 -- is that number 1500, 1600, 1900 ?") Even in parts of the book printed in larger type, the effect of the edge-bleed is to make reading a painful experience.
So, I am returning the book to Amazon. Based on Mr. Lopez's comments this is clearly not an isolated case of a bad print run. I don't believe (as Mr. Jung implies) that the Lopez review is based on some kind of illegal photocopy.
I've owned both of the previous editions of Mr. Jung's fine book on op amps, and I've very disappointed in what the publisher has done to the third edition. Prentice Hall, shame on you.

• Ic Op-amp Cookbook - Hard To Read (paperback) 04 September, 2002
The information is there, but, the print is hardly readable, it is blurred and appears to be a copy of a copy and then reprinted. A shame. I would suggest not purchasing this book due to the above issue with the print quality.
