Lame! Many of the so called cool projects

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 14, 2015

Lame! Many of the so called cool projects, simply takes an off the shelf item and tells you how to put it together?!
That's funny I usually get owners manuals/instruction manuals with all my products anyway, so why do I even need this book?
It goes on like this until you want to just about chuck it out the window...
There is some minor and/or useful instructional only. Wow, what a waste of time and money!

Excellent - Exactly as described - arrived on time - I recommend this seller.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 27, 2007

This is an astonishingly horrible waste of paper. I love astronomy and I like some of the similar "Evil Genius" series. I appreciate the fact that this book was apparently written for the absolute beginner in mind. But it is dreadful. A typical "project" involves buying an expensive piece of equipment, and then simply being told to use it. (Eg Project 10.) Project 15, supposedly telling the reader how to launch a CCD camera on a model rocket, never even mentions how to install or activate the camera! Other "projects" simply restate the assembly instructions for a specific telescope or other piece of gear which already comes with instructions. Project 27 says, "Use a shortwave radio." Uh huh, for what, and what does it have to do with astronomy? Other projects show a few equations scribbled by hand, with the expectation the reader will figure out how to use them (and can read the poor handwriting.) I could almost think the whole book is a joke, it is so pathetic. This should be taken off the shelves.

Wish I'd read it before buying it, this book was a waste of money.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 26, 2010

Having an interesting high-altitude ballooning and aerospace I figured that this book would be a good way to learn about some things I've not been exposed to yet. I'm generally a fan of the other books in the Projects for the Evil Genius series so I took a gamble that it would be interesting, engaging, and educational.

It is none of those things. In fact, it's waste of money.

Much of the book consists of "buy this product and read the manual" with a liberal spicing of "buy this kit, build it according to instructions, and use it" without any context, helpful tips, or other sources of information. This book is pretty thin on actual content and reads more like a catalog of someone's favorite gadgets without any helpful information.

Don't buy this book as it is a waste of paper. Somebody dropped the ball over at McGraw-Hill when they thought this book would be a good idea. A real disappointment.

Projects are impractical

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 23, 2009

Many projects mentioned here need additional and heavy investments. Most readers may not be owning such expensive commercial / scientific equipments needed to carry out the projects.

Waste of paper and money!

Reviewed in Canada 🇨🇦 on September 4, 2017

Verified Purchase

There are no real projects in here, just pages of how to assemble ready made kits you can buy. I assume the kits would come with instructions on use and construction therefore making this book redundant.
