The Kingfisher Book of Electronics introduces the devices and ideas that helped transform daily life during the electronic revolution. Its illustrated explanations explore computers, television and video, sound systems and robots, showing how electronic components make familiar machines work.

Written for curious younger readers, the book invites investigation of the technology behind entertainment, communication and automated machines. As a guide from the era of rapidly developing home electronics, it also offers an absorbing view of the equipment, expectations and inventions that shaped that period.
