Circuit Analysis: Theory and Practice Description
CIRCUIT ANALYSIS: THEORY AND PRACTICE, Fifth Edition, provides a thorough, engaging introduction to the theory, design, and analysis of electrical circuits. Comprehensive without being overwhelming, this reader-friendly book combines a detailed exploration of key electrical principles with an innovative, practical approach to the tools and techniques of modern circuit analysis. Coverage includes topics such as direct and alternating current, capacitance, inductance, magnetism, simple transients, transformers, Fourier series, methods of analysis, and more. Conceptual material is supported by abundant illustrations and diagrams throughout the book, as well as hundreds of step-by-step examples, thought-provoking exercises, and hands-on activities, making it easy to master and apply even complex material. Now thoroughly updated with new and revised content, illustrations, examples, and activities, the Fifth Edition also features powerful new interactive learning resources. Nearly 200 files for use in MultiSim 11 allow you to learn in a full-featured virtual workshop, complete with switches, multimeters, oscilloscopes, signal generators, and more. Designed to provide the knowledge, skills, critical thinking ability, and hands-on experience you need to confidently analyze and optimize circuits, this proven book provides ideal preparation for career success in electricity, electronics, or engineering fields.

I'm a circuit analyst and use all the major textbooks for my tutorial students, many in High School. This is without a doubt one of the best there is! Of course it uses MultiSim and PSpice like all the others, but, uniquely and unusually, also repeats nearly all the examples using the Sharp EL-506W calculator.
Since this is the 2012 edition, I thought the updates might feature the more recent EL-W516XBSL by Sharp-- Sharp Electronics EL-W516XBSL Engineering/Scientific Calculator. It is $20, and by far the best value, compared to the number one circuit- engineering handheld-- HP 50g Graphing Calculator, at nearly $100 (graphing is rarely used in real day to day circuit calculations, you either use your oscilloscope, or PSpice for graphics). But not to worry, the 516 and 506 keystrokes are nearly identical, and equations are even easier with the 516.
Robbins is midway between the very easy and basic Introductory Circuit Analysis (12th Edition) -- perfect even for beginning High School students -- and Karris' very advanced two volume series Circuit Analysis I with MATLAB Applications for much more advanced grad and undergrad students (Karris has lots of partial derivatives, differential equations, linear algebra, etc.
