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
