Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
Grade 6 Up?This extensive collection of do-it-yourself projects ranges from simple ideas using household materials to sophisticated plans requiring a significant investment of time and money, a few of which, such as a parabolic sound antenna, are unique. Each device or set-up includes a list of materials, generally clear instructions, and a black-and-white drawing of the finished product. Unfortunately, the title is misleading; most of these projects are demonstrations and need to be incorporated into a series of experiments to work for science fairs, and there isn't much discussion of the science behind each one. In addition, judges might disqualify "Overpopulation Studies" that lead to guppies dying, and the complicated refracting telescope could prove disappointing. The volume also lacks a list of science-supply houses and a list for further reading.?Alan Newman, American Chemical Society, Washington, DC

Midwest Book Review
Middle through high school grades are quite frequently faced with the daunting task of conceiving of and producing a project suitable for showing: enter this collection of experiments, which covers everything from building a working telescope to creating a miniature ecosystem for display. This outlines many projects which will prove readily achievable with a minimum of special materials.
