I got my German edition of T+S [16] for $120.- shipped to California,
but don't be surprised some of the medicament's made in Europe costing
50 times more here.

Good book. Must have.
Absolutely right. But most electronics amateurs don't seem to want to
spend the money for what is arguably the most important tool available
to improve their understanding. In my view, Chapter 8 alone ("Noise")
is worth the price all by itself ($80 at Amazon).
Speaking of price, I see Springer has a newish English edition of
Tietze & Schenk for over $900!! I like my 1991 English edition just
fine, but for >$900 I expect it to actually build prototypes of the
circuits it shows!! [Generally speaking, H&H is a better learning
resource, IMO. To call T&S a "cookbook" is an unwarranted put-down,
but it is organized more or less along those lines though with much
additional explanation. I see it more as a reference and refresher
for those who already know the material ("I seem to recall seeing a
circuit that would do what I need...") rather than getting students up
the hump of the learning curve in the first instance.]
For anyone who doesn't know yet, the long-awaited Horowitz & Hill "X
Chapters" is on pre-order now at Amazon ($54), expected to ship around
the end of January:
<https://www.amazon.com/dp/1108499945>
I have seen some of it, and as I expected, it is another must-have.
Best regards,
Charles
