After physics I wanted to refresh the concepts of electrical and electronics before going to computer architecture. I had tried various books on the topic before settling with Electronics for dummies by Cathleen Shamieh.
This is not a theory book per se, but have a decent coverage on basics. This book mainly addresses electronic hobbyists. I like the hands on and in detail narration of each task which was giving a real experience with components.
First 2 sections focuses on theory and introduced various electronic components - resistor, capacitor, inductor, diode, transistors, opamps, IC, microcontroller, microphone, sensors and speakers.
Third section outlines practical tips and puts together few sample projects. Section four explains ten ways to explore further and ten electronics parts sources. Saved last 2 sections until I start hands on :-)
