[HELP] Buying Humble Bundle Books

[veryhappy]

Hello, I just found out that the web page humble bundle has released a bunch of books about Lego and robotics.

I was thinking about buying them myself but I don't know about their quality. Can someone give me a clue?

I think a pdf is the best way to go for books if you have a pc accessible at all times.If not, then maybe getting a book is better.

Seeing the preview pdf, it doesnt look that bad.Cant say though if its a good buy or not....

The quality is probably okay. You can lookup the individual books on Amazon en read the reviews.

This looks like a really good deal! Is it really?

They are really. I bought a pack back in november containing Sariel's book.

looks like lots of good Arduino stuff.

That is what I did and I read a lot of mixed reviews so I decided to ask here just in case someone already own any of them and could give me an informed opinion.

Anyway looks like they might be a reasonable deal given their price

Well, that kind of money won't break the bank, so it's worth a shot, even if there are some mixed reviews. If the books are up your alley....why not?!

As someone who read them for highschool robotics, I have to say that the arduino stuff was more impressive then the lego stuff- For that I'd go looking elsewhere for lego build ideas.

For the price though, if you are new to lego and for sure arduino, then it's a great value.

Thank you a lot for your information. It is what I was looking for :)
