123 Robotics Experiments for the Evil Genius
Author: Myke Predko
 | This book provides an amazingly comprehensive education in robotics in a relatively short number of pages. The book is organized into 123 experiments that cover almost every aspect of hobby robotics including mechanics, electronics and microcontroller programming using the Parallax Basic Stamp. Each experiment is 1-3 pages long including a tutorial and a lab experiment involving construction of a device or circuit and exercices exploring its operation and use. The book takes a very practical, hands-on approach to its subjects. Only a handful of pages include any math and that doesn't get any more complex than middle school pre-algebra. The book is very readable but very dense. If you read it cover to cover you will have been exposed to almost all the skills and components used in hobby robotics. If you work your way through all the experiments you will create several simple robots and will develop an comprehensive working knowledge of robotics. The material in this book will be challenging for most adults but can be handled by motivated high school students. Table of Contents
