The H&H AoE book

I thought you'd like it... As I say, it's not the only book on electronics that I use, and it's somewhat weak in some areas (RF stuff, for example). But it's a good solid introduction. If you understand all of H&H, then you'll be able to understand the other books, and work out when they're talking nonsense! I've been fooling around with electronics for 30 years or so, and doing it 'seriously for at least 20 years. I still use H&H _a lot_. OK, this probably means there are areas of electronics (many areas?) that I don't know much about, but my point is that H&H is not a book you will quickly grow out of. There's also a book of experiments, called something like 'The Student Manual for the Art of Electronics). It's good (it goes up to making a very simple 68008-based computer). My only critism is that as it was intended for a university course, it assumes you have some reasonable test gear (bench PSU, 'scope, etc) available. But even if you can't carry out all the experiments, it's worth reading it. -tony
