The book is pretty good, it explains concepts thoroughly
The book is pretty good, it explains concepts thoroughly, this is the exact same version as 5th, except that the exercises are switched around.

Digital Design (4th Edition)
I was extremely pleased with this purchase and the way it was handled. It was shipped the same day I ordered it, even though it was New Years Eve. In fact I recommended this seller and book to another student who was also taking the same class.

Almost new
Got this hardcover from Warehouse Deals. For a used book I was shocked how new it was. Very minor damage small scratch on the cover and semi-bent edges. The CD was unopened in the back. :)

Great book, but HDL examples lack explanation.
Firstly, I will say that this is a great book. I'm a computer engineer and when I was a freshman in college this was our introductory book. This book covers the aspects of digital design and essential components very well. Not only is the coverage great in this respect, but is very readable. I'm a tech head and, to be honest, I loved reading this book. No qualms about the authors' writing styles. The only issue I had with this book was with the HDL examples. The HDL examples were code with virtually no explanation. In my opinion, this is very useless considering it is an introductory book into the world of digital design and computer engineering. HDL is definitely not this books strong point, but for the fundamental concepts of digital design, it's a great book. I keep my copy on my bookshelf and don't plan on selling it.

Solid book, not for self-taught
This book is an excellent companion to computer science/computer engineering classes. It tends to be fairly short and concise for almost every topic, which is why I would only recommend this book to those who really need it (required). Without guidance the concepts of digital design, especially as presented here, will no doubt escape people quickly. There is a couple errors in the book, which can be expected when they have to include data from external sources such as block diagrams for integrated circuits. If you need this book for a college CS/CE/EE intro course no doubt the book, you, and your professor will have alot of fun with some basic computer engineering and labs, BUT, as a self-study or reference, I do not recommend, at all. I have used this book for a computer science course at MN State, and while everything has gone very smoothly, it's only because collaboration with a professor has smoothed out the bumps and even filled in minor gaps or shown alternate methods.

Not a good book for the money
Digital Design by Mano is not a reference book. This book is only good if you have a good professor. If you miss a class and try to read the book, it is impossible to understand. I did very bad on my first exam so i decided to buy another book to go along with this one. I am very happy with the new book which has clear examples on every concepts with timing diagrams, truth tables, and all the steps which is lack of in the book by Mano. One chapter in the book by Mano asked me to go back to ch3 for a picture diagram when i am reading ch 5. It is kinda stressful to read the book because i have to keep switching back and forth between chapters. Because of switching back and forth, sometime i find myself looking for a timing diagram, or truth table more than reading. Not good a good book unless you have a lot of experience in digital design.

Delivered on time in perfect condition as like a new book
This book was like just a new book without any signs of damage or wear and tear at all. It was delivered much earlier than expected. I would definitely recommend it.

Informative and detailed, but could use more answers to the exercise questions
A great book for learning about digital logic although some of the answers at the back of the book are incorrect and only a few of the questions actually have answers provided. It really helps to have the solution manual for the exercise answers.This book is the recommended textbook on this subject when getting an engineering licence in Canada.Please note: This is not an easy topic to grasp for people with no background in electronics or computer hardware, and this is not a book for leisure time reading or hobbyists. Chapter 1 alone will sink a lot of people. The material in this book is challenging and comprehensive.

Cheap but not great
The book itself is what it should be, with all the pages still in decent condition. For the price I paid this was a bargain considering this is a university textbook.However, this book was taken from a library and has many stickers on it (such as OVERDUE in red on the first page, the name of a library on the side etc.). In addition, many pages have things written on them which is annoying.Overall, for this price the book is worth it, just be aware it would clearly not be brand new.
