The authors examine the basic operation of power electronic systems from scratch and with the help of simulations, how these systems can be constructed. The approach used treats power electronics similar to puzzles and rather than merely presenting them and describing how they work, explore why they came to have the construction they have, and how they could potentially be modified. The authors make extensive use of simulations, with every theory and every result accompanied by a simulation. All simulations are performed by the free and open source Python programming language and the free and open source circuit simulator Python Power Electronics.
