Reccomended books
The Art of Electronics
Horowitz and Hill
This is the best general purpose electronic engineering book I know of. Perfect for reading or as a lookup book. I've not yet read the x chapters but it's on my list.
Seeing the Big Picture
Kevin Cope
Very useful handbook size business book. Beautiful business examples using a bike shop as an example. A definite buy for those interested given the low cost.
Analog Filter Design
M.E. Van Valkenburg
Brilliantly written book for those interested in a deep understanding of analog filter design from zero to hero. Worth the cost to get the hardcover given the size. Again perfect for reading or as a lookup.
