I just added Two used books to my Library. These are the types of books Beginners in Electronics would do well with. I wish they were available when I first started back in the 60s.
Very precise and simple step by step topics with a plethora of quality pictures and Illustrations.
Sincerely If you can get them for a cheap cost then don't pass them up!
Suggestion -SEE IF YOUR LOCAL Library can order one that you can borrow They have a Nationwide lending library nation wide.
Also look online for used book seller (One I recommend is Thrift Books I get a lot of bargains through them, others are Powell's books, Abe's Books,)
Some sellers are looking to make huge profits so be sure to see about sellers with much lower prices (
Most are not rare books as they claim.)
I will slowly add more as time goes by.

Overview
Learn electronics fundamentals for both DC and AC circuits, from Ohm’s Law through series and parallel resonant circuits!
This highly acclaimed introduction to the world of electronics technology has been carefully updated to better provide technicians
with a foundation in modern electronics needed to launch a career or pursue more advanced study. Real-world color codes and
strategic highlighting are integrated with ample color charts, photos, schematics, and diagrams for a solid understanding
of circuit behavior that equips readers to progress to more complex topics with ease.
This edition features all new, automated calculations for the formulas in the book on the accompanying CD,
as well as new information on admittance, susceptance, and more!
NOTE: This lacks updated drivers so is limited what you can do with a computer.
There are at least 12 Excel files that you can download even in windows 10,
I have now idea how far back in windows XP? Vista? Windows 7, 8, 8.1, and even a Apple version.
On line the prices for new edition versions are prohibitively High Priced but like me I went and bought one from goodwill online for less that $10.00
