  <default_description>&lt;p&gt;Rereko is just your average high-school girl from Electopia, the land of electricity, but she's totally failed her final electricity exam! Now she has to go to summer school on Earth. And this time, she has to pass&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Luckily, her ever-patient tutor Hikaru is there to help. Join them in the pages of &lt;i&gt;The Manga Guide to Electricity&lt;/i&gt; as Rereko examines everyday electrical devices like flashlights, heaters, and circuit breakers, and learns the meaning of abstract concepts like voltage, potential, current, resistance, conductivity, and electrostatic force.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;The real-world examples that you'll find in &lt;i&gt;The Manga Guide to Electricity&lt;/i&gt; will teach you:&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;ul&gt;  &lt;li&gt;What electricity is, how it works, how it's created, and how it can be used&lt;/li&gt;  &lt;li&gt;The relationship between voltage, current, and resistance (Ohm's law)&lt;/li&gt;  &lt;li&gt;Key electrical concepts like inductance and capacitance&lt;/li&gt;  &lt;li&gt;How complicated components like transformers, semiconductors, diodes, and transistors work&lt;/li&gt;  &lt;li&gt;How electricity produces heat and the relationship between current and magnetic fields&lt;/li&gt;  &lt;/ul&gt;  &lt;p&gt;If thinking about how electricity works really fries your brain, let &lt;i&gt;The Manga Guide to Electricity&lt;/i&gt; teach you all things electrical in a shockingly fun way.&lt;/p&gt;</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[When I reviewed The Manga Guide to Databases over two months ago, I wasn't sure I was going to review any of the other Manga books. I knew that No Starch was going to publish others, but the only ones I was aware of at the time dealt with statistics and calculus; not two of my favorite subjects.

And the level of complexity is surprisingly high given the cartoon format.  Still, this is not a self study guide.
