Text Book
The Analysis and Design of Linear Circuits, 5th Edition, R. E. Thomas and A. J. Rosa, Wiley 2006. ISBN 0-471-76095-1
Earlier or newer editions are fine, such as
The Analysis and Design of Linear Circuits, 4th Edition, R. E. Thomas and A. J. Rosa, Wiley 2006. ISBN 0-471-45251-3
Homework will be assigned from the 5th Edition though. 5th Edition is on the Science and Engineering Library Reserves.
