• Arcane, Overpriced Parts With Vague Descriptions Needed. "information Limited" 15 December, 2007
I got this book for my birthday, glancing through the pages it seemed full of exciting projects to build. My enthusiasm wore off once I started building the projects. Although most of the parts in the "Bill of Materials" are easy to obtain there are some _critical_ parts required for the completion of the project. The book contains vague descriptions of arcane parts that can only be obtained through the authors web site. Alas, overpriced in my opinion. A good book in my opinion wold list part numbers and various sources so the reader has a choice. I have found the cost "estimates" ridiculous, in a particular project just two of the "special" parts needed are more than the "estimate" for the full project. Not to mention that you can only get them through the authors website. In my opinion one of the reviewers that called this book "an infomercial" for the authors website was right on.
Thank you for reading.

• Interesting And Enlightening 24 March, 2007
So buy this book if you are curious and want to know how to build things. Do not buy this book if you have no intention of wanting to learn how to read electrical schematics. You will need to know how to read electrical schematics if you want to build anything in this book. Other than that, It is awesome!!!!!!

Has alot of useful facts on topics. Parts lists are out of date. Electrical supply houses and Radio Shack have most of the parts but never enough to finish a project.
