“Make: Electronics” by Charles Platt will give you a solid understanding of practical circuit building and why we design circuits the way we do. This is a really great book, very well written.

From a programming standpoint though, get an Arduino compatible board and starter kit and go to town. You can do lots of cool electronics projects with an Arduino and some LEDs.
