    IC Op Amp Cookbook, 3rd Edition was transferred to Prentice Hall and republished,
    in 1997. The content of this edition is identical to the Sams edition of 1986. Due to
    print quality issues, recent new (2005) copies from this publisher have been
    intolerably poor.  See Amazon reviews. Until this print defect is corrected, the
    above Sams 1986 edition copies are recommended.

  • Status update of 11/08/2006: A new, 5th printing copy ordered from
    Amazon.com is found still defective. The advice is still to avoid these new
    Prentice Hall copies. Used copies from other print runs may be OK, but
    verify print clarity with the bookseller first!   IC Op Amp Cookbook (PTR)
