    It’s a basic book that’s easy to understand and few dad jokes thrown in. The multimeter tutorial (and a couple other topics) were a bit vague so I supplemented them with some you tube.
    It is a good idea to order a basic “breadboard kit” and multimeter when ordering the book for the lab projects that start in the first couple chapters. I also wish I had some other components such as 555 integrated circuits.
    I’m overall enjoying the book, it’s much fun as it is a huge book.

    After searching every nooks and crannies of the web, and trying a couple electronic books, i can't tell you that this is the one.

    I love the way the author describes the components and diagrams, it makes it very easy to understand.
    I wasn't sur i wanted a 950 pages-book on electronics but I had it for a week now and I'm almost done.

    It's really worth it

    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.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Ok voor eerste kennismaking met electronica
    Reviewed in Belgium on 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
