Linear Network Theory: Analysis, Properties, Design and Synthesis (Matrix Series in Circuits and Systems)

I originally picked it up thinking that all the matricies were because it was solving complex circuits using node analysis. However this is not the case.

Anyway I was not very impressed by that and the book builds from their approach to include "cut sets" of the circuits and yada yada yada. All in all after 5 years of doing superposition, node and loop analysis I was not too open to learning this guys technique. Maybe other schools use this approach and then this would be the book for them. As for the rest of the book, it does not touch on Caur or Foster networks until page 490 (of a 600 page book). In Budak it hits then on page 92 (of a 700 page book). As the book progresses it has entire networks (2 port) represented by gigantic matrices (10 by 30 or so). It also has very little opamp circuit covered. Like most books on this topic, Laplace representation of a circuit is presumed, as well as the matrix manipulations. If you are thinking of picking up this book to quickly reference something you will be out of luck. Most topics are the authors approach which does not seem to be too standard.
