Excellent book - I purchased my copy in 1983, so the sections on digital tech are a bit dated by now, but it is probably the best resource for learning analogue electronics on the market. The authors have the knack of presenting the underlying concepts in a simple, easy to understand way. I still regularly refer to my copy!
Here's one that most people don't know about, but is very good on the basics of electronics - "THE ARRL HANDBOOK FOR RADIO COMMUNICATIONS", 2012. The book is intended for HAM radio operators, but it has some great fundamental concepts on electronics.
The next one is Pozar's "Microwave Engineering" -- right next to AofE on the shelf! One of my favourite uses was in interviewing candidates -- open AofE to one of the "bad circuit" pages, pick one, and ask them, "What's wrong with this one?"
When you see the hard copy in the flesh (I've heard there's also cheap counterfeits around...) with its weight, and hardback book covers, and the content inside, the higher cost of this book starts to lessen its burden...
you can use TH-cam lectures, most collage lectures are available on TH-cam, and then can use a book like AOE or a book for whatever sub field you are interested. but the most you will learn is by doing things practically no book will or can come close to that
If you check out some of the earlier videos posted in this channel you will find basic books. Also just reading the comments. There are also full courses available on utube and other platforms like mitx coursera etc
HEY, KR LABS. I hate to say "you did it wrong again..." cause I know you've been looking for this book for a while. But also, the Student Manual to the Art of Electronics is the superior resource. The actual text itself is dense and reads more like a giant datasheet. the student manual to the art of electronics is just a good read and "reads more like a book." You don't even really need the text, its not like a goosebumps "flip to page 200 for the answer" type book. And it just kindof skips through some of the basics everyone knows.
I have a question, if i know nothing about physics math etc and i want to learn about electricity and some of its basic applications, do you have a book in mind to propose that would make the best introduction?
i will heavily disagree with this, 90% of the serious engineers/hobbyist/makers i have met are in love with this book. it might seen complex as its packed with information.
Actually the opposite. It is too practical and simplistic for engineers to be of any use other than in a lab as a quik-and-dirty cookbook, not a textbook certainly. on the other hand physicists used it a lot in the lab back in the day.

I follow boylestad basic electronics for my basics for now... It's pretty good for that.

You might know this already but older editions have differences and are products of their time. They can be useful still

Please provide us with books on mathematics
will do
I have no prior knowledge of electronics, but I am eager to learn. Could you recommend a good book to start with?

Yes will upload soon
"Practical Electronics for Inventors" (by Scherz & Monk) is pretty good.
@dimaratosgeorgiadis2672 check out my video on platts book making electronics
There is a second book also.. its a lab study 9f the book by same authors... so u can get hands on and do all the practicals in the book?
I have both books.. shelf Queens
Hmn.. the x factors.. you have the third book in this series i do believe.
"Learning the art of electronics. A hands on lab course"
ARRL hand book
Encyclopedia of electronic circuits
My latest purchases..
ut of focus..im useing ssmsung smt 230....with love amd,
This is fascinating I am an absolute novice in electronics BUT how do I start learning this

When throw away all the books and start building stuff?
next week
@@krlabs5472 Nice! Because you have talent as a builder.
Good for scientists but too complex in practice for engineers.
i will heavily disagree with this, 90% of the serious engineers/hobbyist/makers i have met are in love with this book. it might seen complex as its packed with information.

Every electronics engineer that I know has a copy of this book, as do most technicians and serious hobbyists.
@@dimitrioskalfakis I’m looking for a real engineer type textbook, can you suggest one
Poor video... why not downloading it and look at it yourself?
