So I want to better understand electronics(I have a general understanding of how electricity works)so I went to the local goodwill and bought a couple $5 electronics to take apart and look at. After opening them, I found that I'm over my head. I have dealt with simple wires, circuit breakers and such, but with things like circuit boards I see the wires going in and out but don't really understand it any better.

Is there any advice/literature you could give for someone starting out in messing with electronics?
