Analog Computation

Analog Computation by Albert Smith Jackson is a comprehensive guide to the principles and applications of analog computing. The book covers the basics of analog circuits and devices, including operational amplifiers, diodes, and transistors, and explains how these components can be used to build analog computers. The author provides a detailed discussion of the various types of analog computers, such as differential analyzers, integrators, and multipliers, and explains how they can be used to solve complex mathematical problems. The book also covers the design and construction of analog circuits for specific applications, such as control systems, signal processing, and data acquisition.Throughout the book, the author emphasizes the advantages of analog computing over digital computing, particularly in terms of speed, accuracy, and ease of use. He also discusses the limitations of analog computing and the challenges involved in designing and implementing analog circuits.Analog Computation is an essential resource for students, engineers, and researchers interested in analog computing and its applications. The book provides a clear and concise introduction to the subject, with numerous examples and exercises to help readers develop their understanding of analog circuits and devices.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
