content: My favourite book title is"How to Build and Use Electronic Devices Without Frustration, Panic, Mountains of Money, or an Engineer Degree"Stuart A. HoenigPretty good book as well although I guess getting dated now. I haven't looked at it in years.I do remember a bit discussing three prong mains plugs, how current returning through the operator is know in the trade as getting zapped, and how non-habit forming it is.

content: Quote from: robrenz on January 11, 2014, 03:10:35 amThat's the next book I want to get.The one I'm reading at the moment and finding quite good is The Circuit Designer's Companion, 3rd Edition by Peter Wilson.It seems to be a good blend between practical experience based rule-of-thumb and some theory to explain why.

content: Thank god nobody mentioned 'Art of Electronics' so far. There is still hope for this world... Anyway, most of my books got replaced by Wikipedia and internet in general. For math problems I like to resort to 'Modern Engineering Mathematics' and 'Advanced Modern Engineering Mathematics'. Sometimes I use the handouts I got during my EE study.The book I still need to start reading is 'applied control theory for embedded systems'.
