Need book about electronic equipments

[Edwardo_Elric]

i need to learn basic stuff about parts of an analog trainer, oscilloscopes, resistors, potentiometers,diodes, transistors... i mean all about electrical engineering experiments and devices...
- this book shall orient me how to use these stuffs
- this book must guide me on what parts to buy in a hardware store
E.g. what i did
(Me: hey do you have a diode?
Shopper: What number?
Me: nose bleeds
Me: how about oscilloscope?
Shopper: number?
Me: " "
)

- no theory about electrons flowing and stuff

if there exists,
what good book to recommend me?
thx very much

It sounds like you're asking for a degree in electrical engineering all wrapped up in a single book. This obviously won't happen, but I'd suggest the book "The Art of Electronics" by Horowitz and Hill as a good practical introduction to systems-level electronics.

I understand your need for a comprehensive book on electronic equipment. I would recommend "Practical Electronics for Inventors" by Paul Scherz and Simon Monk. This book covers all the basic components and their functions, as well as how to use them in experiments and projects. It also includes practical tips on buying equipment and understanding their specifications. Additionally, it provides hands-on experiments and projects to help you apply your knowledge. I believe this book will be a great resource for you to learn about electrical engineering experiments and devices. Good luck with your studies!
