Since publication of the previous, the 3rd edition of this book,
the sensor tech- logies have made a remarkable leap ahead. The
sensitivity of the sensors became higher, the dimensions - smaller,
the selectivity - better, and the prices - lower. What have not
changed, are the fundamental principles of the sensor design. They
still are governed by the laws of Nature. Arguably one of the
greatest geniuses ever lived, Leonardo Da Vinci had his own
peculiar way of praying. It went like this, "Oh Lord, thanks for
Thou don't violate Thy own laws. " It is comforting indeed that the
laws of Nature do not change with time, it is just that our
appreciation of them becomes re?ned. Thus, this new edition
examines the same good old laws of Nature that form the foundation
for designs of various sensors. This has not changed much since the
previous editions. Yet, the sections that describe practical
designs are revised substantially. Recent ideas and developments
have been added, while obsolete and less important designs were
dropped. This book is about devices commonly called sensors. The
invention of a microprocessor has brought highly sophisticated
instruments into our everyday life. Numerous computerized
appliances, of which microprocessors are integral parts, wash
clothes and prepare coffee, play music, guard homes, and control
room temperature. Sensors are essential components in any device
that uses a digital signal processor.
