I'm sure others will saturate you with links, so I'll just give you a few
of my favorite books, (the dog-eared ones).

The Forrest Mims Engineer's Notebook
by Forrest Mims
HighText Publications, 1992
ISBN: 1-878707-03-5

Forrest Mims' Circuit Scrapbook
by Forrest Mims
Howard W. Sams & Co., 1987
ISBN: 0-672-22552-2

CMOS Cookbook
by Don Lancaster
Howard W. Sams & Co., 1988
ISBN: 0-672-22459-3

IC Op-Amp Cookbook, 3rd Edition
by Walter G. Jung
Howard W. Sams & Co., 1986
ISBN: 0-672-22453-4


Forrest Mims' stuff is good, so are Don Lancaster's Cookbook series, and I
couldn't get by without Jung's book, but the best all around book on
electronics that I know is:

The Art of Electronics
by Paul Horowitz and Winfield Hill
Cambridge University Press, 1989
ISBN 0-521-37095-7

This book is encyclopedic and assumes no knowledge other than algebra for
the most part. Good beginner's stuff, but _great_ stuff for folks who've
been at this a while.

Be sure it's the _second_ edition, which came out in '89. It has a
companion "The Art of Electronics Student Lab Manual" (I believe that's the
title), too.
