Same reason as the "For Dummies" book, but this says it explains basic hands-on experiments, which I think would help me understand concepts much more easily.
While learning about electronics as a hobby, I quickly found out about the Arduino device-board-electrothingamajig. I think that this book may help explain the Arduino and how to use it, which I would very much like to learn.
I've recently been looking at some really neat DIY electronics projects that I'd like to do, but I have no knowledge of the subject. I'm hoping that this will help!
