"Certainly not for Beginners" according to M. Hamed. Certainly there are quite a lot of information in this book. But to say it's for beginners is misleading. The book lack organization. Many technical jargon is just put out without explanation. Sentences that need explanation are not explained. If you wanna start from scratch this is not the book for you, you may need to look for another book. However the book may be good as a reference for solving specific problems as done in the later chapters. But frankly I couldn't get any good understanding of TV inners from the first chapters. Also the figures are horrible. Name of ICs in the diagrams do not match the text descrip. "Lacking in actual substance" according to A Customer. This book unfortunately does not live up to its hype. From reading the back cover, you'd think that you could fire up the ol' soldering iron and actually get some work done. Definitive repair guide? Definitely not.Information is too general, with circuits as block diagrams only. Considering the complexity of TV circuits, this is a no-no. Included schematics don't tell you what ICs or components do, with general references like ICLacking in actual substance This book unfortunately does not live up to its hype.

The repair was simple because the problem was easy to find.This book is not for everyone, but in this age of throw away electronics, it was refreshing for me to find and solve the probl
