So here's the big picture....there are many many different books that one might use as a text for an Arduino course. At their root level all the books I've seen are very very similar. Jeremy Blums book has seemed like a particularly good one but I've seen many others. This will be a running list of books with the potential to be useful tools in learnign about the potential of uses of the Arduino platform. Web based resources will be linked on this page to separate them from the text based tools given here.
