Hello, I am currently taking a circuits class and I was looking for the solutions manual for the book Basic Circuit Theory by Charles Desoer. I haven't been able to find it anywhere but I really want it to practice more of the problems. I am able to do some but I never know if they are right or wrong since I don't have the answers, having the solutions would be very helpful to me. Please let me know where I can get them. Thanks so much in advance!

Welcome to the PF, Karen.

Instructor solution manuals are just for instructors of classes, not for students. That's for obvious reasons, although for students who are self-studying it makes it harder to be confident in their own practice problems.

The best advice is to find a comparable textbook that puts the answers to half of the problems (like the even or odd half) in an appendix. That will give you a study tool that should be what you are looking for.

Have fun with your studies. :smile:
