    Entertaining electronics by E.Sedov; translated by Eugene Felgenhauer by Mir Publishers 1973 is one such interesting book i stumbled upon in a used books store in Bangalore. While studying for B.E, I used to refer this book if I had doubts in my subjects. At that time I did not realise how valuable this book was.
