9.		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.

15.		Arrl Antenna Book: The Ultimate Reference for Amateur Radio Antennas from American Radio Relay League (ARRL) Price: $21.49 Customer Review: I cannot imagine an antenna subject on earth that is not covered here. As a fairly new ham with a General license, this book is a bit like taking a drink out of a firehose. It might be wise for the new ham to start with something a bit more basic.

24.		Smart Homes for Dummies, Second Edition from For Dummies Price: $0.80 Customer Review: Some readers commented that there is not actually enough information on "how to actually do something" or "home automation".

Not meaning that stuff is too technical, but it would... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


25.		Analog Circuits (World Class Designs) from Newnes Price: $16.11 Customer Review: It seems rather presumptuous for Bob Pease to say "Every year there are 200,000 Chinese engineering graduates, and they don't know what we know.

27.	[no image]	RF CIRCUIT DESIGN from Howard W. Sams Customer Review: In ~200 pages this book covers material ranging from introduction to inductors and capacitors and finishes up covering super-hetrodyne receivers.
