{"product_id":"9781484201817","title":"Mastering the Raspberry Pi","description":"\u003cp\u003eYou probably already know that the Raspberry Pi is an excellent teaching tool. If you want to teach Linux basics or Python programming or basic electronics, it's a great place to start. But what if you are an electronics engineer or a Linux systems administrator or a very experienced maker? You want to know all of the details and inner working of the Raspberry Pi -- how to (figuratively or maybe even literally) make it get up and dance without wading through basics and introductory material.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you want to get right into the pro-level guts of the Raspberry Pi, complete with schematics, detailed hardware explanations, messing around with runlevels, reporting voltages and temperatures, and recompiling the kernel, then \u003ci\u003eMastering the Raspberry Pi\u003c\/i\u003e is just the book you need. Along with all of the thorough explanations of hardware and operating system, you'll also get a variety of project examples and explanations that you can tune for your own project ideas. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou'll find yourself turning to \u003ci\u003eMastering the Raspberry Pi\u003c\/i\u003e over and over again for both inspiration and reference.
