I've been wanting to get into hardware type projects (robots, gizmos, etc) for a while but I'm fairly ignorant of hardware. I'm a software developer by trade. I've seen books like "The Art of Electronics" and "Teach Yourself Electricity & Electronics". But what I really need is a book of project/tutorials, that upon completing them, I can honestly say I am very, very familiar with electronics.

Is there such a book?
