Tucker   Review #2388 - Dated: 4th of February, 2008
  Author: Tucker

I wasn't sure what to expect from this book... and yet, even so, I was surprised at what it contains. Not blueprints for modifying mechanical household appliances, no circuit diagrams for rewiring autonomous vacuum cleaners, no design specs for converting a car with an onboard computer into a cut-down KITT... what I did find was a whole pile of little informational anecdotes and a swarm of... sorry to say... drivel.

Overall, a humourous book for science geeks... that's about it. The highlight: the artwork. My personal fave has to be the septopoids. Smile Icon
