DESCRIPTION:
Do NOT purchase Kindle version IBM fan Overall, this is a pretty good book. However, I bought the Kindle version, and that was a mistake. The tables are all messed up and unreadable. They also are all over the page, and they seem to jam up the book, so you can't turn the pages.From reading the text, it is a great book, but it should not be sold as a Kindle if the Kindle reader can't display the material.. Madeleine M. Miehls said Best Book for Makers Everywhere. Buy it!. This is a wonderful text and written by a girl geek in plain English. Whooot Whooot. Very clear pics and several web sources to visit for more info are included. I subscribe to MAKE magazine and pre-ordered the print (not kindle) version when I saw that it would soon be available. Didn't disappoint me. Love it Love it Love it. It's an easy read. If you know almost nothing of electronics you can figure out what she's saying (I'm an engineerbut you don't have to be one) and with very little . A good introduction to wearables covering a variety of techniques A good introduction to wearables covering a variety of techniques, sensors and boards. A good "idea" generator book. The author's experience as a faculty shows through as a well written "textbook" or "lab manual". Recommended as a first book on wearables.
