""The Art of Electronics" get immediately to the point in simple language for each subject treated. It contains the most lucid narrative that this reviewer has found in any similar professional volume in recent years. This text succeeds in taking the student from very close to zero knowledge of electronics (or even electricity) to a point where he would be considered fully knowledgeable and perhaps even expert by typical researchers in the physical sciences."

    5.0 out of 5 stars Straight to the point
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 25, 2021
    Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase
    Have just got the book
    I am a novice

    I bought this due to the fact that there are not a lot of books out there to teach you electronic repair/theory understanding

    Iv only glanced through it so bare that in mind but I agree with the other comments
    It's heavy going but in time
    But
    In one section it explains about resistors..feed in/out..what the reading should be ... brilliant

    No point giving me an engine then taking it apart and saying...there you go🤬

    This book is what I have been after and although the series is expensive I'm prepared to buy as I progress..yes progress.. because apart from going into programming which seems to be the majority of books out there

    I can eventually strip my tube radio and with gained knowledge.. discover what is wrong
    Fix
    Job well done😁

    My question is why after all this time looking is there only these books
    Surely the old TV repair men started somewhere 🤬

    5.0 out of 5 stars Best book for learning about electronics
    Reviewed in India on September 18, 2023
    I would personally say that this is not a complete beginners book, because there's a lot of information. Some of the chapters where a little hard to me, but if you expand on the information with google it can so much more helpful

    5.0 out of 5 stars Prima
    Reviewed in Germany on July 25, 2024
    Obwohl das die asiatische Version des Buchs ist, sind alle Inhalte der Version 2 enthalten. Der Preis ist gegenüber der "normalen" Version unschlagbar. Eine gewisse Wartezeit gibt es natürlich, mein Exemplar kam z.B. aus Indien. War aber ordentlich verpackt und kam ohne Beschädigung an. Kaufempfehlung!

    A must have for any budding electronic engineer.

    It is infinitely more readable than other books I have on the subject.

    1.0 out of 5 stars Funktioniert nicht auf Kindle-HARDWARE WTF?

    Das Kindle eBook lässt sich nicht auf Kindle-Geräte installieren. Stand 2025-10-26
    Muss man nicht verstehen.
    Wenn man sich einen Scribe kauft damit man GENAU dieses eine Buch anständig groß darstellen kann: Was für Zeug baut Amazon da?

    Mit der iPad- oder PC-App funktioniert das eBook.

    Das Buch selbst ist sehr gut und ich möchte es als Nachschlagewerk auf dem Kindle Scribe haben.
