This is a growing compilation of books on Scientific Instruments and Sensors.
It includes also titles to be yet released (they have a month specified in the release date).
References are sorted by year (in decreasing order) and, secondarily, by the first Author.
Violet-color titles indicate non-technical texts (history, social aspects).
Black-color titles specify technical texts (mostly electronics).
Green-color titles indicate introductory technical texts.
Many of the books are available at convenient prices from Amazon.
Entering Amazon from here to buy something is a way of supporting this site at no extra cost to you.
