555 Timer applications book

Hi guys. Not having much luck on this forum, but I haven't time to give up. Can anyone point this old pensioner to an applications book, one with practical circuits for the 555. Preferably second hand as funds are almost non existent. Any help appreciated.

Book about the 555 timer and its applications

An excellent introduction to the 555 Timer is "IC 555 Projects" by E Parr, ISBN 0859340473, published by Bernard Babani (www.babanibooks.com) price £3.99. Operation and use of the 555 are covered thoroughly and there are many circuit diagrams of projects.

This and other books are listed on the Electronics Club site at www.kpsec.freeuk.com/books.htm
