When you have a circuit demonstration all set up, and it doesn't quite work -- where do you go for help? When a student needs some help on a lab, and the capacitors look different from anything you've seen before -- is that a clue? How do you keep abreast of problems and solutions in the linear field, in the 1990s? Maybe that new book about linear circuit TROUBLESHOOTING will help you. After all, it's hard to get experience in everything, but when it comes to linear circuits, a little book-learning can't be bad ...

If you still want to be able to solve all the tough, nasty problems, you will just have to buy this new book about TROUBLESHOOTING Analog Circuits. And you'll have to hide it, so the other engineers won't know where you get your troubleshooting techniques from. Lock it in your desk drawer. And especially, you will have to make sure the technicians don't see the book. Because if they want you to buy each of them a copy of the Troubleshooting book, they will be able to solve most of their problems without even bringing them to you. Hey, maybe that's not such a bad idea after all ...

Oh, it's great to get a lab project working. But it isn't always easy. The clues are not obvious. WHY won't the stupid thing work? Do we really think the problem was defined right? Maybe that new TROUBLESHOOTING book will help. Maybe if I show the book to my father, he'll spring for the money. He used to work with electronics -- maybe he can give me some tips on what the problems were like in the old days, and I'll get him so interested that he'll want to buy me that book ...

If you want to be the best trouble-shooter in your lab, you will just have to buy this new book about TROUBLESHOOTING analog circuits. And just leave it around on your bench, so people can see how smart you are. But, drill a hole in the book and keep it chained up, so it doesn't walk too far away. Then when your boss has to decide, who is the sharp, up-and-coming technician, this book will help remind him. Of course, the fact that you've been able to take on and solve some tough problems -- that is the biggest advantage. Why invest $28.95?? Because it will save you half of that, every time it saves you an hour in solving a nasty problem. Now, if you can't afford that much of an investment right now, just point out to your boss how good an investment it is for him to buy you a copy ...
