Another book (which I frankly don't like as much since
it's so math-heavy: wouldn't electronics be so easy to
learn if all that goddamn math didn't get in the way?)...

I hope you're joking, because without that math, you can't begin to truly
/understand/ electronics. Mathematics is used to model the physical world.
When you understand the math, you have a much better comprehension of the
physics involved.

Hint: I don't use smiley faces.

Of course math is essential to understanding electronics. I'm OK with
algebra and trig, but have problems with calculus, even though I have a
basic understanding of it (differentiation, integration, etc.).

Maybe in the next lifetime ...

that he is not going to hear any rebuttals.
