Subject: Re: [motm] Basic electronics book

From: Thomas Hudson <thudson@...>

I would suggest "The Art of Electronics." If you look at
the reviews on Amazon, you'll see why.

The Barry Klein book is available directly from Barry:
http://www.xavax.com/bklein/em.htm

Also consider The Preferred Circuits Collection from
Bernie Hutchins. You can't purchase it online, you
have to mail him directly, but this collection is
definitely worth it. Sorry, but I don't have the address.
You can find it on Tom Henry's site, but I can't
seem to find this link either.

Paul has some good suggestions at:

Craig Andertons Electronic Projects for Musicians
is another good one. I think you can purchase
it from http://www.paia.com
