"In a real sense, people who have read good literature have lived more than people who cannot or will not read. It is not true that we have only one life to live; if we can read, we can live as many more lives and as many kinds of lives as we wish."
- S. I. Hayakawa

| |  | | | In Brief
Presented as a self-instructional guide for professionals, hobbyists, and technicians desiring to competently enter the world of circuits (ac and dc), measuring devices, resistors, cells and batteries, semiconductors, computers, and the Internet. The author adopts an informal and visually-oriented style, estimating that a daily hour investment for eight months and taking the chapter-end multiple choice tests in combination with no higher than junior high school level math and physical science will earn self-didacts basic mastery in this area.
In the field of introductory electronics, Stan Gibilisco wrote the book. Now this gifted teacher/author has updated his best-selling guide to reach audiences interested in the latest electronic technologies: wireless communications plus computers and the Internet. Like its predecessor, the Second Edition is a complete self-teaching tool. Because it assumes no prior technical knowledge, true novices can use it at their own pace to master the fundamentals of electronics for work or hobbies. Gibilisco's proven blend of clear descriptions, extensive illustrations, and numerous self-tests make this a true "stand-alone" guide-whether readers seek to understand the working of AC/DC, the newest cellular communications and satellite systems, or their own desktop computers and the World Wide Web.
Stan Gibilisco, one of the most trusted names in popular electronics, has enhanced his bestselling guide with new chapters on cutting edge technologies. The second edition remains the classic first edition's user-friendly, self-study approach while bringing you practical new information on wireless technologies, computers, and the Internet. Assuming no prior background in electronics, it features a conversational writing style, quizzes, self-tests, and more than 500 illustrations that make learning easier and livelier Pub.
