I am new to Arduino, I did buy the Getting Started With Arduino from Make, but need some more examples and explanation.</p>

I would say it is well worth it if, like me, you have messed around with this stuff a bit but have not mastered it. Even though I am not building any of the projects discussed, each chapter provides some insight that is useful to what I am working on or thinking about. One caveat. I used it to construct a circuit (the resistor ladder). It didnt work. I thought it was me. Turns out the material in their book is wrong and the corrections are posted on their web site. So I guess I will double check on anything else I build from that book.</p>

Its easy to follow and has lots of good practical advice and explanations of why various design points were chosen...at least the parts I have read thus far.</p>
