Summary: Pretty Pictures and little else
Comment: The diagrams are the only reason I gave this book a two. There are some useful tables and figures that help clear up the gibberish that is the text. There is so much context that you cannot find the science. Also, when you can find the science it is occasionally wrong. Coulomb's law was listed and explained as depending on 1/distance between the charges not 1/(distance)^2. This is an egregious error. There are better books out there that you can learn from without having to question the validity of what you read.
