I would, but Amazon's selling it for £46, which is kind of on the steep side :P

But worth every penny. It is the best introduction for serious students of electronics, yet without the maths of a university course. There are cheaper smaller books but they tend to cut corners and create misconceptions. One exception: "Foundations of Wireless and Electronics" - various versions by Sowerby, Scroggie and Amos. Earlier versions on valves, later ones on transistors. Second-hand versions available on ebay etc. Less detail than H&H, but good for beginners. Highly thought of in the UK, not sure how available elsewhere.
