Teach Yourself Electricity and Electronics by Stan Gibilisco

Learning about electricity and electronics is easy with this well-illustrated guide for beginners. Assuming that readers have no technical or scientific background, Stan Gibilisco begins with the laws of atomic and molecular activity and progresses logically through the principles of direct and alternating current, magnetism, inductance, capacitance, resistance, reactance, and impedance. He also takes the mystery out of electronics equipment, explaining the purpose and use of power supplies, measuring devices, resistors, filters, diodes, semiconductors, transistors, amplifiers, oscillators, transformers, and more. Throughout, Gibilisco's instruction reflects the latest advances in analog and digital electronics.
Stan Gibilisco is one of McGraw-Hill's most prolific and popular authors, specializing in electronics and science topics. His clear, reader-friendly writing style makes his science books accessible to a wide audience, and his background in research makes him an ideal editor for professional references and course materials.
