Introduction

This isn’t your traditional, static, boring paper-based textbook. Unless you have had experience with interactive e-books in the past, the process of “reading” this book is going to feel different. In addition to reading, you should be:
  • Watching videos
  • Trying things out in labs or on your own
  • Discussing concepts with your peers
  • Practicing problems and more

Mastering anything takes time and deliberate practice. In general, you cannot reduce the time required, but you can make the educational journey fun and interesting. This textbook is designed to be part of that journey.
