Make: Electronics: Learning by Discovery 3rd Ed (Make Community)
Friday, 05 November 2021

This book teaches electronics using a system developed by Charles Platt to enable an experience that is fascinating, fun, and memorable. Readers learn by building their own circuits and by making their own mistakes. In fact, mistakes are an important part of the experience. The book encourages you to "burn things out and mess things up" to find out for yourself the limits of electronic components. You'll blow a fuse and watch an overloaded LED, and you can cut open a relay to see how it works inside.
