Great Book on Embellishments.......2007-09-16
I would recommend this book for anyone wanting to know more about how to embellish any project. Great instructions.
Creative Embellishments.......2007-07-23
Where does one start talking about a book that's chock full of ideas, photos and techniques that are "do-able", with supplies that the typical surface design artist already owns? Sherrill's use of mixed media is an inspiration. The combination of color and textures makes this a great addition to your reference library.
Just Plain Fun.......2007-07-13
This book offers a variety of ideas that can be incorporated into art projects, scrapbooking, cardmaking and probably many more arts or crafts.
It's just plain fun to read and then go back and zero in on specific areas that are of interest. I feel the book is meant to give your brain a nice creative jolt and start flying off with your own ideas of what to use with the stash you may have or incorporate some new ways of doing things with many items costing very little to give some new excitement to a project of any kind.
Inspirational.......2007-06-18
I now own two of Sherrill Kahn's books and I have found both books to be very informative and inspiring. She goes to great detail explaining the techniques she uses to make her lovely work, enabling the reader to enjoy new avenues of creation in fabric and paper surface design.
Sherrill Kahn does it again!.......2007-06-15
Wonderfully illustrated, great ideas and projects you will want to try.
Highly Recommend!

Customer Reviews:
Awesome Book! A "Must Buy" for Novices and Experts Alike.......2004-05-01
I bought this book after learning how to do a couch stitch. After one night of beading, I had learned many different stitches and was creating works I didn't think I could do! This book is a "must buy" for any new beader and I can't help but think that it would also be a good book for anyone who has been beading for a while but needs some new ideas. I checked out several beading books, and really believe this is the most helpful! Thank you Nancy! You've inspired me!
Off the Beadin' Path.......2004-04-30
I have worked thru the exersizes in this fun book and found it to be an exciting and a challenge to me to push the boundrys of creativity a bit. Such fun and clear illustrations what a joy. Easy to follow and well written. Better than a lot of the other bead books I own.
Off the Beadin' Path by Nancy Eha.......2004-04-16
From the personal growth challanges in doing a Discovery Journey journal, to the examples of stitches used in creating original beadwork I have found Nancy's book a wonderful way to get out of the creative stuper I was in after moving from Ct. to Fl. I now can just sit down and throw beads together and before I know it I have a wonderful piece of bead art that all my friends admire, and to tell you the truth some of them envy because they feel I am so talented, (if they only knew the secret was what I learned from Nancy's book.) A must have in any beader's book collection to open up the artist in all of us.
Don't buy this!!.......2003-09-23
Don't waste your money!! There are far better beading books than this one. I hated to even give a one-star rating but I had to, otherwise it would not let me rate this trash.
Off The Beadin Path.......2003-07-18
I was just not happy with this book. The artists redition of "art" made my eyes cross. I did not get inspired by the photographs at all and decided to try another "how to bead book". The author means well, but the photos were just too busy and nothing seemed to have placement. If this author has not taken any formal art instruction, I strongly suggest it.

Well presented projects complete with patterns and good directions. Has a definate "country" flair. Especially pleased with the completeness for even the beginner of felt work. Recommend.++
excellent, inspiring book -- lots of great designs and pics.......2000-08-06
If you like working with felt or wool, either in quilting, applique, or penny rug making, you'll like this book. Great designs, wonderful photos, good templates and instructions. Also good advice on working with felt and wool, how to prepare it for applique, and where to buy it. I recommend this book. It's a pretty book.

Practical Approach to Op-Amps.......2002-12-02
I'm a mechanical engineer that specializes in robotics and found this book very approachable. If you're looking for a solid "real world" book on op-amps and their applications, this is a great reference book. It contains useful examples that teach the underlying theory without being overly burdened with graduate level mathematics.
Unfair review.......2002-03-17
This is a rebuttal to Mr. Sanders review, which I found to be unfair and untrue. I have the second edition of this book which was used as the text for an undergrad course taken in 1988. I have found this text an invaluable resource. The equations are well derived and the examples provide a good foundation to op-amp circuit design. This text is a good reference for beginner and experienced engineers alike. I find it highly unlikely that the fourth edition would be a step backward from the second edition.
Great Book!.......2002-03-15
This book is well written even for a 12 year old. The math isn't too complex. I don't know if the previous reviewer has any formal electrical/electronics education; maybe that should be the place to start. I think this book does a better job than "The Art Of Electronics", in explaing how Op-Amps really work. But don't let this book be the end all to be all. Until an author writes a book that combines everything about Electronics, use as many books as possible. I have not found one book that can compare to 10 books on the same subject. Maybe the "Grey" book.
very difficult to understand. heavily equation oriented.......1998-09-25
The prose explanations are short and stilted, offering a minimun of circuit operational explanation. When the author reaches what I entrepet as writer's block, he refers the reader to an equation which is lenghty and difficult to understand. The equations often lack explanations as to how they are derived. They also lack explanations of what the new symbols in them represent. They would be much easier to understand if there was more prose explanation of how the equations were created and then how the equations were changed into simpler equations for solving. This appears to be a good reference for experienced engineers. It is not a good study text for newly learning students.

ASIN: 052133604X |
Book Description
This book presents a collection of analog electronic circuits based on the operational amplifier; the workhorse of analog electronics. The discussion is supported by a wealth of practical detail that will enable the reader to speedily select, build, and test a desired circuit. The book is primarily intended to be a practical reference work and readers will discover an extensive and invaluable source of functional and established analog circuits, from integrators and differentiators to logarithmic amplifiers, from filters to instrumentation amplifiers. The circuits are grouped according to function, and the approach is to build up slowly from \'textbook\' examples toward a series of practical, workable circuits.

Customer Reviews:
Good book for beginner, but full of typos.......1999-10-12
Joe Carr has a very clear writing style and illustrates all concepts with simple circuits. His general approach is that of an electronics technologist educating a hobbyist or technician. He does a great job at this, but unfortunately devotes no effort to proof-reading. This third book in the series is still flawed by numerous mismatches between text and schematics, improper symbols, etc. This will be very frustrating for the novice and obscures the points involved. Mr. Carr obviously cares little for his own work, since he has not moved to correct these glaring errors in this series.
A good beginner's book but full of errors........1998-10-08
This is both a good book and a bad book for beginners on the subject of op amps. It's a good book because it presents the basics of op amp circuitry in a concise, straight forward manner without getting bogged down in a lot of theory and mathamatics, and it is well organized. However, it is a bad book because it is full of errors which even a moderately experienced reader might spot but which may confuse someone new to op amps. Errors like incompreshesible sentences, errors in equations, equation variables that don't match the circuit diagrams, missing figures, and wrong figures. Someone, probably non-technical, did a lousy job of proofreading.
I would not recommend this book to learn op amps. And if you can spot the mistakes, you already know op amps and you don't need this book either.
