Of course these kits aren‘t actually teaching me anything (other than

Think you do that mostly by reading.

Maplin did a pretty good book called Electronic Circuits - written before
everything was done on a chip. But does cover building block chips like op
amps. No idea what is around today - likely more about how to do it with
your phone. ;-)
