What resources, books, people, or other sources would be best to use to learn about Bitcoin, and how to obtain it as a regular human?

Hello,

I am a newbie to bitcoin, and I want to learn more about it, how it actually works, and how to obtain it. I am though very nervous about what sources are true and just a google search will not give me the full story. Does one really need a doctorate in tech to be able to work with a mine bitcoin? I want to learn and be able to see what it is all about, and all advice is welcome. Thanks
