    Great book to break down how different electronic components work. I have gone through some of it and really like how it is put together.

    w.c. · March 28, 2024

    I started learning electronic repair. The title described me until I got this book. The authors make it really easy to understand and the lay-out of the chapters are perfect for me. So much easier than even online classes. To me the book is worth its weight in gold.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Good Book

    Fast shipment and a great book for electronics.

    Ok voor eerste kennismaking met electronica

    D. · January 20, 2024

    Ik ben nog volop bezig met het boek dus misschien verandert mijn mening nog later. Eerste indruk is dat het goed is voor absolute beginners die helemaal geen voorkennis hebben. Het leest vlot. Veel anekdotes van de schrijver die niet veel bijdragen aan je leerproces maar die het lezen van het boek luchtig en ontspannend maken. Er wordt niet teveel wiskundige formules op je afgevuurd en niet heel diep op de onderwerpen ingegaan, eerder oppervlakkig. Leuke projectjes maar de foto’s zijn zwart-wit en slechte kwaliteit, de instructie tekst gaat altijd uit van het materiaal van de schrijver, bv de benummering van zijn breadboard terwijl deze kan afwijken van het jouwe, en dus aan de foto’s heb je ook weinig waardoor je veel tijd verliest met uitzoeken wat er bedoeld wordt. Verder wordt er bv een volledig hoofdstuk gewijd aan een oscilloscoop Terwijl een beginner daar helemaal niet veel aan heeft in deze fase van zijn leerproces. Dus heel veel lezen en weinig praktische kennis vergaren. Beschouw het boek, zoals ik zei, als een eerste kennismaking en beschrijving van electronica en apparatuur. En kijk daarna voor meer diepgang in je volgende cursus

    Great all-rounder reference - good to have around should there be power or internet disruptions

    T.K. · May 21, 2025

    Great reference book to have with my container of solder, parts, and electronic junk. Seems to have everything in it for basic reference and considering the enormity of the content I'm pleased. I bought a 'used' copy off of Resale for about 20% off. The cover was half detached. Hmmm... there's this stuff from the old days called GLUE that fixed that plus stick-on laminate from the darn dollar store firmed up the durability of the book for a paperback. I'm happy with it. Sure we can look up stuff online, but an all in one hardcopy source means you've got the basic goods if there's an internet outage or whatever. I only looked through the book but it's like 800 pages and I'm very pleased with the hardcopy reference it provides. I love it. And sheesh. I got a discount requiring some GLUE. Had to laminate it anyway so now it's in great condition. Very pleased.
