Partial Chapter 1 edits

Open jpinkham opened this issue 6 years ago • 1 comments

I'm loving what I've read so far! The writing is easy to follow and nothing like some of the dry textbooks I've been struggling with on the same topic. Thank you for taking on this project and sharing it with the world for free.

I marked up a few sections in chapter 1 using Adobe Reader. One of the things I saw most often that you may want to do a "search and replace" on: use of 's to indicate plural when you only need the s. Ex: PCBs, SMBs, etc. The apostrophe should only be used to indicate possession of something (Ex: The PCB's form factor). Also, bravo on the correct use of its vs it's nearly everywhere -- it's rare to see such a thing nowadays.

Have you considered breaking the book into individual chapters within GitHub (and maybe in markdown format)? It may be easier to get more contributions/suggested modifications. https://www.gitbook.com/ could help with that.

Hello! Many thanks - I've made a note for such edits.

Also, the LaTeX code will be released soon - and, sadly, the project is wholly unsuitable for markdown. I really tried with it, but it just isn't LaTeX, so LaTeX it will remain, at least here, I'm afraid.
