Dated but still good for the basics. Alas something’s don’t change and it seemed to have focused on that which doesn’t change, or I’m just missing something now. Prices and estimates on items were obviously off but I didn’t mind that, just needed to know what essentials I needed and how those things work. It also went over basic components and principles of electronics in a great introductory way. An easy book to speed read.
