Query: Take the course...

If you take the course then you get the book too. And, since Ott is a good lecturer, you will likely learn a lot more than trying to read the book.For packaging engineers like myself, this book is not worth the money. You would be better off buying Blackwell's "The Electronic Packaging Handbook" which has an excellent chapter covering all important aspects of EMC. For Electrical Engineers I suspect what you have in your "High Speed Digital Design" (Johnson and Graham) will be more than adequate.The real issue is simply too much information. I agree with Ott that some understanding of antennas is needed to understand EMC but not nearly the amount covered in this book. I think that Ott's ham radio hobby has caused him to overdo that material in this book.I highly recommend taking the course but I suspect if you buy the book you won't finish reading it.
