Make Electronics
Everyone uses electronic devices, but most of us don’t really know what goes
on inside them.
Of course, you may feel that you don’t need to know. If you can drive a car
without understanding the workings of an internal combustion engine, pre-
sumably you can use an iPod without knowing anything about integrated cir-
cuits. However, understanding some basics about electricity and electronics
can be worthwhile for three reasons:
• By learning how technology works, you become better able to control
your world instead of being controlled by it. When you run into problems,
you can solve them instead of feeling frustrated by them.
• Learning about electronics can be fun—so long as you approach the pro-
cess in the right way. The tools are relatively cheap, you can do all the work
on a tabletop, and it doesn’t consume a lot of time (unless you want it to).
• Knowledge of electronics can enhance your value as an employee or per-
haps even lead to a whole new career.
