Vance, E. F., Coupling to Shielded Cables, Wiley, 1978, reprinted by Robert E. Krieger Publishing Co., Melbourne, FL, 1987. 194 p.

Reference work on cable shielding and cable-to-cable coupling integrating theoretical and measurement papers on the subject. Topics include interference coupling through cables, wave interaction with the soil, current induced on above ground cables, buried cable, and coupling through cable shield. Mathematical treatment through calculus.

Vorpérian, Vatché, Fast analytical techniques for electrical and electronic circuits, Cambridge; New York: Cambridge University Press, 2002. xiii, 476 p.

Describes alternative techniques to nodal or loop analysis to solve, almost by inspection, complicated linear circuits in symbolic form and obtain meaningful analytical answers for any transfer function or impedance. Topics include: Introduction, Transfer functions, The extra element theorem, The N extra element theorem, Electronic negative feedback, High-frequency and microwave circuits, Passive filters, and PWM switching DC-to-DC converters.
