   Wish I'd had it myself 60 years ago, but there was nothing of that sort   
   around back then; not in the UK anyway. I had this crazy notion (though   
   it *seemed* perfectly self-evident to me as a beginner) that given a   
   chain of resistors in series between two poles of a battery, that the   
   current through each resistor as you go down the change would diminish.   
   After all, it *must* do, I reasoned, otherwise the resistors wouldn't get   
   warm and run the battery down. That sounds daft to me now, but back then,   
   if someone had told me the current was the same through every resistor I   
   wouldn't have believed them!   
      
   The book I suggested prevents readers from making elementary errors like   
   that by clearly setting out the cornerstones, the rock-solid foundations   
   of the science that you NEED to build on in order to learn more.
