Saved Me in Navy Electronics Training
This was the first book on electronics I ever remember buying. I "discovered" it at the local Radio Shack in the early 80's while attending Navy electronics training. Thankfully this book and its writer, Forrest M. Mims, III made the challenging world of electronics accessible and best yet, fun. With the help of this book, I survived the Navy's training (thank you Forrest!) and it sparked a ...

Interesting little circuits that can easily be expanded
This is a pretty interesting entry in Forrest Mims' Engineering Notebook series. In this short book Mims introduces the reader to circuits that convert physical phenomena such as light, temperature, and sound into electrical signals that can be processed by circuits comprised of commonly found electronic parts such as the 741 op-amp. Mims includes brief explanations of the operation of a variety ...

Great little book joins electronics and environmental science
This book is a departure from other titles from the same author. It is of high quality like all of his other books, but it manages to get the reader interested in electronics AND elementary meteorology and environmentalism. I think that it is slightly mislabled, as I didn't see anything in the book that was about communications circuitry. However, it is packed with interesting projects on the ...

Electronic Formulas, Symbols & Circuits
I forgot most of the formulas I learned years ago in Tech School. This is a super handy reference and I would recommend it to all Service technicians or hobbyists that want the most out of their designs.

Makes you remember why you wanted to be an engineer
I simply love this little book. Reading it has made me remember why I wanted to become an engineer in the first place - to build circuits that do cool and interesting tasks. You just don't see books like this anymore. Since the standardization of computing hardware, most engineering books are written at a very high level and do not have anything to say on circuitry that is readable by someone ...

Radio Shack, 1977

Not worth the $1.50 it once did. Too old, extremely basic.
This little booklet, like most radio shack 'how to' electronic "books", seems a bit of a joke. However, I'm not joking about it being a little booklet. It's thinner (90+ pages) and smaller than a comic book (5x8"). If you want to learn how to make the equivalent of a doorbell ring, then this is the book for you. If you however want to make a synth from scratch, look somewhere else. There are ...
