My mother has been growing African Violets since 1980, and it only took 40 years to wear me down to the point where I decided to try growing them. Violets are a rewarding hobby, and I have started to attend shows. My problem has been that they take up too much space, and a single water cup hydroponics solution was too time-consuming.
I purchased Beginner’s Guide to Hydroponics and Aeroponics by G. Thum to see if I could automate/simplify the process. It is a good reference that takes a deep dive into the pros and cons of each method. I was especially impressed with the deep-water culture, and I am presently adapting my setup to use this system. I also got a lot out of the section describing pH. I had not paid much attention to this before, and it has helped my yields.
This is a great book, and I recommend it to anybody who wishes to learn more about hydroponics.

Very comprehensive look into this subject

I liked how the book gave the pros and cons of each system. I did not know anything about these systems before picking up this book. I was surprised about the fact that hydroponic systems use 80-98% less water then traditional soil plants. I am a bit intimidated at starting this and need to consider what indoor space I can use but I am thinking I may get a very small system and follow some of the advice in this book as a start

Excellent introduction to hydroponic growing

I love gardening, and the winter months seem longer without my outdoor playground. I have dabbled with hydroponic gardening, but this book gives a full and comprehensive introduction to gardening and growing vegetables and herbs indoors. Great resource for both background information and practical applications.

The book is a very comprehensive guide to learning how to do hydroponic and aeroponic gardening. The author clearly explains each method, the tools and equipment required, and the pros and cons of each. I'm confident that there isn't any other book you'll need to read to get started with either hydroponic or aeroponic gardening. A must read.
