…. If you have trouble with the calculus as it's taught today, look into infinitesimal calculus (one free on-line book, one Dover reprint of a good MIT Press book). Maybe The Manga Guide to Electricity would help. Or Purcell's Electricity and Magnetism ; yeah, it's an advanced, "honors physics" treatment (e.g. it derives magnetism from electricity using Special Relativity: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relativistic_electromagnetism ), but maybe it'll give you some useful approaches. (If you can't find a copy to look at, try to get the Tata McGraw-Hill Indian edition ISBN-10 0-07-066729-2), it's not in print elsewhere and copies are $$$). Talk to other people and see if they can wave their hands in ways that make sense. Etc. Good luck.

I immediately thought of this book "The Manga Guide to Electricity by Kazuhiro Fujitaki, Matsuda, and Trend-pro Co, Ltd." published by No Starch Press ( http://tinyurl.com/mwsw7k)- it's squarely in the "fun" category but it's a little more basic and not really hands on with electronics.
