MAKE: Electronics
MAKE: Electronics by Charles Platt is a project-based book that introduces components, circuits, and troubleshooting through step-by-step, hands-on experiments. Teens and adults learn by actually building things—blinking LEDs, sensors, small gadgets—while the author explains the underlying theory in plain language. Parents appreciate the emphasis on safety, clear parts lists, and the way each project builds on previous ones to deepen understanding. You’ll need to buy components and tools, but the book itself is reasonably priced and can anchor a full year of practical electronics learning.
