The title of this guide may lead some to think that this is really a starting point for someone that is either at the beginning of an electrical engineering degree program or thinking about electrical engineering as a major. And it is really not that so much as it is a guide that takes the large concepts that you learn throughout the course of an electrical engineering degree like circuits analysis, electronics (circuits made of diodes, transistors, etc.) digital logic, electric drives, etc., and condenses them into one guide. So, it is more a review of the core concepts of an electrical engineering curriculum and can be used as a primer once you graduate to brush up on concepts, prepare for the PE exam (for those who will take it), etc. It is not necessarily a guide that will be extremely helpful to use in an introduction to electrical engineering class that many schools have that gives you an idea of what you can do with the major, may have you build a couple of basic soldering projects or the like. It has some calculation mistakes in it (which knocks it down a star for me), but if you need to brush up on the theory for some reason, this is an excellent guide to get the big picture without all of the fine detail.
