Reader Reviews
This book assumes alot. To start with, a back ground in electronic engineering. If you don't have practical real world (or at least laboratory experience), you could get yourself, or worse, someone else, killed. I wouldn't suggest this as a source book for high school science projects; it's as likely to get you a term of 5 - ten in a state run facility (not college) as an A grade. Given the current climate, using a high power laser pointer could land you in a fair bit of trouble (the book does point this out). This is also one of the better documented projects. The other factors that the book does not consider are: * Budget. These are not low cost projects. * Time. Plan on doing research outside this book. From the 28, there is one project I plan to try. Read the contents page before buying - unless there is at least one project you really want to do (and sink time and money into). I would pass. Some of the plans are more like overviews.
