There will no doubt always be a succession of new-generation enthusiasts embarking on their first introduction to electronics (be it for fun or work), and on the lookout for easy-to-understand introductory books on the subject. For those beginner enthusiasts and hobbyists, my books are suited to your needs. Have fun building the projects and, at the same time, increasing your working knowledge of electronics. I had fun working with you,Candy! Andrew Singmin,2000 ix
