The world's factories are moving. Will you be ready?
For decades, "made in China" wasn't just a label, it was the entire manufacturing map. Now that map is being redrawn. Tariffs are rising, supply chains are shifting, and countries around the world are racing to bring production back home. That shift is a door standing wide open, and this book hands you the key.
Reshored is two books in one. The first half takes you from absolute zero to a real, working understanding of electronics: voltage, current, resistors, capacitors, diodes, transistors, and sensors, each explained from first principles and proven with a hands-on circuit you build yourself. No prior experience required, no shortcuts taken.
The second half is the part most electronics books never touch: what happens after you understand the circuit. How to find a product worth building. How to design it for real manufacturing, not just a working prototype. How to source components, work with a factory, get properly certified, ship safely, protect your brand, and get your product onto real shelves, real listings, and into real customers' hands.
Inside, you'll learn:
- The physics and math behind every core electronic component, taught in plain language, with a real circuit to build for every concept
- How to evaluate whether a product idea is actually worth building, before you spend a dollar on tooling
- What CE, FCC, RoHS, and UKCA certification actually require, and how to get certified without a legal team
- How to ship lithium batteries, navigate customs and tariffs, and work with manufacturers in reshoring hubs like Turkey
- How to protect your design, package your product, and meet the real requirements Amazon and retailers enforce before they'll sell it
Written by Narzan Hashpak, a business administration and computer engineering graduate with twenty years of hands-on experience designing and manufacturing electronic products, Reshored is the guide for anyone who's ever looked at a product idea and wondered if they could actually build it themselves. Now is the moment. This book shows you how.
