  1. My “evil genius” loves this book
    My husband bought this book for my sons 10th birthday. He is a lover of all inventive building projects. The projects in the book all have clever and interest catching titles to draw your little builder in. The book is really intended for someone older than 10 unless there is a lot of parental help. My son cannot build any of these projects on his own.

  2. Fun Book! But the Kindle Edition could need some minor improvements to make it a bit more user friendly.
    I bought the Kindle edition of this book. The projects are fun. But the way in which the Kindle version has been published reduce the user friendliness of this book considerably.For example in Chapter 13, the list of parts has been published as an image instead of being listed as plain text . This makes it really hard for you to look them up because these parts do not have a link nor are the numbers easy to memorize and type into a google search window by switching screens on the computer or tablet. Rendering them as text in Kindle and enabling the user to copy and paste them into a browser window would’ve enhanced the usability of the book tremendously.Simple improvements like this can really make a huge difference in a Kindle edition. Isn’t that one of the goals of an e-book? To make it much more than a regular paperback counterpart?

  3. Great Book!
    Great Book! It is easy to read and to understand. I have learned so much from this book. Before this, I have not done anything electrical engineering so I was a little timid. I’m just going to say this was the perfect start into the field. It teaches you and then explains why a certain project works the way it works. Thanks!

  4. Full of really fun projects
    Not so dangerous, just really fun. Thank you Simon Monk for your contribution to the Evil Genius series.

  5. Has problems, but I like it anyway.
    Needs experienced adult guidance. There are sometimes important steps and items left out. For instance, on one project it needs an Arduino power plug. But, that item is left out of the list of materials to acquire. It’s needed for another project too, but in that one, it is listed. In another case the pictures and plans are inconsistent. An inexperienced builder would not know which way to go, and one way does have advantages over the other. Another case, uses a leaf blower. Claims that nearly all blowers are built the same way and can be adapted. Not true. The particular blower used is available only outside the US. And nearly all other blowers would need to be modified in such a way that they would not be useful for anything else – in other words destroyed for the original purpose.But, if this is used or supervised by someone with experience, or who has good project sense, it is good. Has interesting things for a boy to build. Probably not so interesting for girls as boys though. And, with proper supervision or experience, most of it looks buildable and fun for a kid to do.

  6. Simon Monk has suceeded again!
    So you want to build a mini rail gun. Where here is the book to show you how. Simon Monk has many books to demonstrate the how on many electronic devices. You will be amazed on how he explains the purchase of items and the logical build and testing procedures he follows to ensure success.

  7. 15 Dangerously Mad Projects for the Evil Genius
    15 Dangerously Mad Projects for the Evil Genius outlines some intresting projects, all of which any pretty simple with easy to under stand instructions.

  8. Interesting book for electronics novices
    I bought this Kindle book for my PC because I was curious. There are some interesting projects, and the instructions are written for someone with an interest, but not necessarily a lot of experience, in electronics projects.

  9. Well written with a sense of humour and therefore fun to read.It really makes you really want to build!

  10. Very useful to get some ideas about personal projects!! Some of them are very interesting and complex!!Good adquisition!!Recomended!

  11. This book bravely approaches frontline technology In an educative way, you will not produce WMD weapons (I think) but you may get some idea of how a Rail gun would work on the Moon. A rail gun is how we may magnetically propel minerals or ore from the moon back to earth. Enough Said!
