Re:The Art of Electronics (Score 1)

I feel compelled to throw in an enthusiastic second (or third or fourth) for the Art of Electronics. AoE does not skimp on deep theory, yet it's the only book I know that tells you (for example) why you would want to use a tantalum capacitor rather than an electrolytic capacitor. And so on.

It's a must-have on any Maker's shelf.
