I have this book highlighted on my reading list of analog computer
books as
"the best book I have seen for someone new to analog computers".
http://www.best.com/~dcoward/analog/readlist.htm
Most books on analog computing use tons of mathematical equations to
illustrate
a concept because they are aimed only at engineers. This book explains
these
concepts simply with wonderful drawings and a minimum of mathematics. I
love
reading it so much that I have one copy at work and one copy at home.
But hey,
that's just me. :)
