Electronics for Beginners: A Practical Introduction to Schematics, Circuits, and Microcontrollers
Sep 1, 2020
$30.39
Jump start your journey with electronics! If you’ve thought about getting into electronics, but don’t know where to start, this book gives you the information you need. Starting with the basics of electricity and circuits, you'll be introduced to digital electronics and microcontrollers, capacitors and inductors, and amplification circuits – all while gaining the basic tools and information you need to start working with low-power electronics.
Electronics for Beginners walks the fine line of focusing on projects-based learning, while still keeping electronics front and center. You'll learn the mathematics of circuits in an uncomplicated fashion and see how schematics map on to actual breadboards. Written for the absolute beginner, this book steers clear of being too math heavy, giving readers the key information they need to get started on their electronics journey.
What You’ll Learn
Makers, students, and beginners of any age interested in getting started with electronics.

Many volumes have addressed the question of whether or not naturalism is a required part of scientific methodology. However, few, if any, go any further into the many concerns that arise from a rejection of naturalism. If methodological naturalism is rejected, what replaces it? If science is not naturalistic, what defines science? If naturalism is rejected, what is gained and what is lost? How does the practice of science change? What new avenues would be available, and how would they be investigated?
This volume is divided into three parts. The first part considers the question of methodological naturalism and its role in the demarcation problem - deciding what is science and what isn't. The second part discusses the impacts that different boundaries have on scientific thought in a general way. Finally, the third part looks at how non-naturalistic methodologies can be beneficially incorporated into specific fields, and how in a few cases non-naturalistic methodologies have already been successfully incorporated into certain fields.

$4.95
Are you always trying to get ahead, but feel like you aren't gaining any ground? Tired of working for more and somehow making less? Does it seem like you're trapped in a game of economic roulette-always betting your time and energy, but ultimately paying the price from your own pocket? From the devalued dollar to the healthcare hassle, MicroSecession gives you new ways to think about money and value in an economy overrun with ridiculous policies and unaccountable, out-of-touch politicians. MicroSecession isn't about getting rich or abandoning civilization, but it will give you practical ideas for increasing your personal value and insulating you, your family and your community from the negative fallout of government debt debacles and failing economic policies that hit too close to home. It may begin with your bank account, but it doesn't end there-from finance to food, healthcare, education and more--see how everyday people can make a real difference in their own lives, and benefit from a better understanding of the value we all bring to the table.

Calculus from the Ground Up
Jan 1, 2020
$9.99
Calculus is one of humanity's greatest achievements. With calculus, you can analyze the infinitely large, the infinitely small, and everything in-between. Calculus gives you the tools to develop your own mathematics, your own formulas, and, most importantly, your own imagination. Calculus is not just a subject. It is an invitation to think differently about the way that the world works.
Calculus has a reputation for being a dry, dreary, difficult subject. However, the problem generally lies with tedious, lifeless books that present calculus with all the vigor of a wilted salad. Calculus was not discovered as a series of dull proofs about the real number line. It was discovered by curious people who took the time to look at the world in a new way.
Calculus from the Ground Up invites readers to not just read about mathematics but to become active participants--making numbers and symbols the servants of their minds as they grow their imaginations in ways they didn't think possible.
Calculus from the Ground Up isn't your typical mathematics book. It is a guidebook for students to learn not only the bare subject of calculus, but also to discover how its artistry impacts other areas of life. Calculus from the Ground Up includes sections on how to solve impossible problems, how to break problems into manageable sizes, how to develop new mathematical formulas, and even how to live a more ethical life, all through lessons gained from calculus.
