This is the first edition of the For Dummies book but the fifth in a line of books focusing on the basics of printed circuit board fabrication.  The founding members of Bare Board Group (Greg Papandrew, Tom Coghlan, Bonnie DelGrosso, and Katherine Hsu) worked together to update the previous volume for today's industry with the added benefit of the "For Dummies" simplified format.
