520    Jump start your journey with electronics!  If you've 
       thought about getting into electronics, but don't know 
       where to start, this book gives you the information you 
       need.  Starting with the basics of electricity and 
       circuits, you'll be introduced to digital electronics and 
       microcontrollers, capacitors and inductors, and 
       amplification circuits -- all while gaining the basic 
       tools and information you need to start working with low-
       power electronics.  "Electronics for beginners" walks the 
       fine line of focusing on projects-based learning, while 
       still keeping electronics front and center.  You'll learn 
       the mathematics of circuits in an uncomplicated fashion 
       and see how schematics map on to actual breadboards.  
       Written for the absolute beginner, this book steers clear 
       of being too math heavy, giving readers the key 
       information they need to get started on their electronics 
       journey.
