Summary: Excellent start
Comment: Clive Maxfield is brilliant and has a great sense of humor. If you don't believe me, ask his mother (he tells us so in the book). As a person who has opted out of math and science since the age of 15, I felt I needed more background to continue on in computer programming. This book has not disappointed me, although for my level, I've used the Web site How Stuff Works.com to explain things as well, and the two complement each other perfectly. But this book is so much more than that. It got me excited about math in a way I wish my school teachers had years ago. It showed me I could understand all of this garbage, if only my teachers had 1/2 the true enjoyment he has! Maybe Mr. Maxfield should help rewrite kids' textbooks and then they'd actually enjoy doing their homework.

Summary: Outstanding!
Comment: I have a MSEE, but I found this book to be far more enlightening and useful than any textbook I ever read in college. It teaches you the real basics of electronics without going into complex mathematical equations and theories. It teaches you in a way that is fun with emphasis on the key points that really matter. If you work in the electronic industry, but are non technical or even if you are technical this is a great book that is easy reading. They should write more books like this.
Rating: 5
Summary: A goofy yet detailed overview of electronics fundamentals
Comment: This is a great book ranging from the absolute basics of number systems to circuit design, ceramics to alternative and future technologies. It is presented in an entertaining and easy-to-read format that just about anybody can enjoy reading.
