This vintage circuits and logical design book is by a MIT professor of electrical engineering, Samuel Caldwell. It appears to be a first edition, second printing. Copyright 1958 second printing April 1959.

The book covers property and applications of switching circuits, switching components, switching algebra, minimization methods, symmetric functions, electronic and solid-state devices in combinational switching circuits, iterative networks and more. The appendix even includes information on binary numbers. It's fascinating to think of circuit technology back in the1950s.


The book is in good condition or it's age. There are minor marks on the cover. Someone with their name on the inside. The pages have yellowed a bit with age, and the edges of the pages have some yellow spotting (foxing) due to age.
