FACULTY MEMBER HAS PUBLISHED PHYSICS TEXT

A text book, written by a member of the faculty of California State Polytechnic College, has been published by Prentice-Hall. Michael M. Cirovic is the author of the text, Semiconductors: Physics Devices, and Circuits.

The volume, part of the publishers series in electronics technology, is intended for a first course in electronics for electrical or electronic students during their soph­omore or junior year. Cirovic who received his B.E. from New York University in 1965 and an M.S. degree from NYU in 1968, joined the Cal Poly faculty in electrical and electronic engineering in 1968. Previously, he was assistant professor with the Academy of Electronics, and an engineer for General Cable Corporation.

Published in a cloth bound edition, priced at $18 and a student edition $13.50, the text is a description and an analysis in the techniques used in the design of electronic circuits.

In the preface Cirovic states, "A complete understanding of electronic circuits can only be achieved through a study of both the internal physics and external character­istics of the semiconductor devices."

Previously illustrated with charts, diagrams, and formulae, the book deals with such topics as amplifiers, diodes, field effect-transistors and the internal physics of such devices.
