2.		Getting Started with Arduino (Make: Projects) from Make Price: $7.44 Customer Review: As a complete n00b to physical computing, Massimo Banzi's Getting Started with Arduino was the perfect introduction to this exciting field. I read the book while I waited for my Arduino to arrive and it allowed me to hit the ground running when it did.

3.	[no image]	Ugly's Electrical References from Burleson Distributing Corporation Price: $168.98 Customer Review: This is not a handy pocket ref. It's a little large for that, but the info inside is just what you need when your out in the field and need to remember a formula that you don't use often. Full of handy ref. tables too.

4.		National Electrical Code 2008 Index Tabs from Delmar Cengage Learning Price: $13.27 Customer Review: These tabs make searching through the NEC code book quick and easy.

Teach Yourself Electricity and Electronics, Fourth Edition from McGraw-Hill/TAB Electronics Price: $19.96 Customer Review: Every great once in a while (not often enough), you're lucky enough to come across the right book at the right time.

6.	[no image]	Microeconomics: Coursecompass Access Card from Prentice-Hall Price: $98.89 Customer Review: Good shape, on-time. I wanted to return the book though (because I was no longer taking the class, not because the book was flawed) and the return process was kind of complicated. But certainly not a reason not to buy from this distributor.	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


7.		My Inventions The Autobiography of Nikola Tesla from Wilder Publications Price: $7.38 Customer Review: I purchased this item for my boyfriend who is an aspiring inventor.

9.		Home Recording For Musicians For Dummies from For Dummies Price: $13.82 Customer Review: I bought this book and Guerrilla Home Recording at the same time. I found myself bouncing back and forth between them, each adding to overall learning experience. If the reader is starting at zero level, this is an especially good choice. Not only do you get the basics, but also a good sense of how... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


10.		Electric Motors and Drives: Fundamentals, Types and Applications (3rd Edition) from Newnes Price: $18.70 Customer Review: I have been searching for years for a book on drives which explains the subject intuitively without resorting to complex mathematics.

11.		Experiments with Alternate Currents of High Potential and High Frequency from Nabu Press Price: $16.96 Customer Review: This book is simply a collection of Tesla's lectures. It is extremely long. I'm sure things would be different if Tesla was still here to give these lectures in person. It is not a fast read. It does allow elaboration of some of Tesla's ideas, but I felt it was an injustice that this edition... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


12.		Prodigal Genius: The Life of Nikola Tesla from Adventures Unlimited Press Price: $11.78 Customer Review: What an interesting account of a truly remarkable human being. How many other people could conceptualize a process, imagine it starting, and come back to the imaginary process later and actually be able to know if it works? How many other people could get by on two hours a night of sleep so that... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


13.		Electronics For Dummies from For Dummies Price: $13.95 Customer Review: I have an electronics degree and after 25 years I wanted a refresher course.This is a good basic electrical/electronics book.	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


15.		The Art of Electronics from Cambridge University Press Price: $80.62 Customer Review: This is an excellent book covering a great deal of modern electronics, even though it is twenty years old. It really is surprising how little has changed in basic electronics since then, including readily available familiar parts. There is supposedly a semimythical Third Edition somewhere in... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


16.		Empires of Light: Edison, Tesla, Westinghouse, and the Race to Electrify the World from Random House Trade Paperbacks Price: $9.58 Customer Review: I loved this book! I bought it hoping to learn, more than anything, about Tesla. I ended up learning an incredible amount about Tesla, Edison and Westinghouse--and a lot about the time period they lived, as well. Each of the three men came to life in this book! The vast majority of the book is... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


17.		LabVIEW for Everyone: Graphical Programming Made Easy and Fun (3rd Edition) from Prentice Hall Price: $59.24 Customer Review: Having decided to go down the LabVIEW route for a project I rapidly dug myself into a big hole because of the complexity and the fact that LabVIEW was quite different from any other language I'd used. I was under a tight timescale and couldn't afford to wait for a training course to come around so... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


18.		Build Your Own Electric Vehicle from McGraw-Hill/TAB Electronics Price: $15.76 Customer Review: I picked up this book because I was curious. I am a car guy who loves working on his cars, and loves motor sports, especially dirt track racing. I am probably not the target audience for this book.

20.	[no image]	Tesla: Man Out of Time from Dorset Press Price: $29.00 Customer Review: What a disappointing read! I honestly struggled to finish this biography after starting it with such high hopes.

26.		Professional Android Application Development (Wrox Programmer to Programmer) from Wrox Price: $25.63 Customer Review: The material is outdated, the software it refers to you can't get. the MFR says there is no written updates to use the book with current software.

27.		Making Things Talk: Practical Methods for Connecting Physical Objects from Make Price: $17.78 Customer Review: This book isn't as good as "Physical Computing: sensing and controlling the physical world with computers" by the same author.

30.		Wiring Simplified: Based on the 2008 National Electrical Code from Park Publishing, Inc. Price: $7.00 Customer Review: Wiring Simplified???? Unless your an electrician... this book is not for you. I'm not the brightest knife in the tool shed and this book reads like it was written by a lawyer. Get 'Wiring a House / For Pros by Pros' by Rex Cauldwell instead. These two books should exchange titles.	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information
