Our latest book, Make: Electronics, has been selling like hot cakes (do hot cakes really sell that well, BTW?), so much so that the conveyor belts were empty for awhile and our mechanical maker elves had nothing to box up and ship. The engines of commerce are once again in motion and there's still time to get the book for the holidays, even with free shipping (until midnight tonight PST, for orders of $175 or higher).
We thought you might also like to see a complete list of experiments/projects in the book. There are 35 in all:

Want to learn the fundamentals of electronics in a fun and experiential way? Start working on some excellent projects as soon as you crack open this unique, hands-on book. Build the circuits first, then learn the theory behind them! With Make: Electronics, you'll learn all of the basic components and important principles through a series of "learn by discovery" experiments. And you don't need to know a thing about electricity to get started.
