Forbidden LEGO: Build the Models Your Parents Warned You Against!
Customer Reviews [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-06-02
Summary: More than just designs
... You've always wanted to make that medieval catapult hurl things at your siblings. You've always wanted to gear down that racer and try to take it into the sandbox. Now here are designs that can help you do it. Not only do you get a ton of cool designs, but included are a ton of ideas on changing up the designs or switching pieces in case you're missing a few of the bits recommended. The designs all work very well, and are of the top quality that you'd expect from the former LEGO employees who made this book. The real

Summary: More than just an instruction book
... I've enjoyed with this book not only creating some of the creations it has, but also reading the LEGO design-related stories, guidelines and ideas the authors have written through all the chapters. The pages format and design are very attractive and the building steps are perfectly structured, fun and easy to understand. For me, a must-have being a LEGO fan.

With an active imagination as your guide, there are endless possibilities-provided you follow the LEGO Company's official (and sensible) rules. This means no cutting or tampering with bricks, creating models that shoot unapproved projectiles, or using non-standard parts with any LEGO product. After all, those little precision-molded ABS bricks can be dangerous in the wrong hands! Well, toss those rules out the

[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-07-06 Summary: The best book to complete this game ... This book contains the location of all the items in the game and is overall very straight foward. ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-09-07 Summary: Frustration Over! ... It drives me crazy when I can't find all the secrets in a game! It also makes me feel extremely thick when I can't figure out a puzzle. This books sorts out both problems, in addition to making this mom look "cool" when she plays with her kids. I like the addition of the checklists- that was one of the biggest drawbacks of the Lego Star Wars Guide. ...more
[4] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-07-26 Summary: Leggo Indiana Jones The Original Adventure (Players Guide) ... I found the guide very helpful. It was well written and not at all confusing as many are. My grandchildren like to play the games and try to figure out where all of the items are but when they get stuck we need the book. This is a well put together aid. ...more

[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-05-13 Summary: Learning the process ... The value of this book is not in the number of documented designs, but how it teaches you the process to come up with your own designs. It even does it in a much more entertaining way then my engineering classes did. Understanding the design process allows you to create any number of robots that do what you want them to do and this is an invaluable life skill. That is what this book teaches you. It allows you to try to come up with the solutions on your own, or build the solutions the author came up with. My son and ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2007-11-10 Summary: Engaging and Helpful ... This book is a wonderful introduction into program and design with the NXT, and yes, we've been using the RCX as well. The book is well laid out. The story is engaging and gives the tasks purpose. I really like the templates provided in the book. It gives anyone a method of organizing their thoughts, so they can go ahead with the building and programming and know they're headed down the right path. I bought this for my children because I have no interest in robotics or programming, and I've enjoyed it as much as they ...more
[4] Rating: 5 Date: 2007-07-06 Summary: Wonderful! ... AB FAB! I'm really trying to addd something to the reviews posted already. So much goodness has already been posted about this wonderful book. My sons are very young and I cannot wait for them to have this book to read and enhance their knowledge while having fun in the process. Melting together reading, technology, problem-solving, and programming could not produce a better combination for building a great education. I know that this book has gained some significant recognition in the LEGO MindStorms world and the ...more

LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT-G Programming Guide (Technology in Action)
Customer Reviews [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2007-08-09 Summary: Lego Mindstorms NXT_G Programming Guide ... When it comes to wanting to do Lego Mindstorm NXT-G, this is the first book you should get. The book shows the reader what different blocks are and how they work. The book also reads in terms that middle school students can understand and follow.

[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-02-17 Summary: Great Book! ... We bought this book for our nine year old son who had recently received the Mindstorms NXT for Christmas. He could not put the book down - read it from cover to cover and thinks it is a great book. Highly recommend. ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2007-07-13 Summary: More Details about the book ... The book consists of 26 chapters plus 1 appendix. The first 2 chapters cover the questions of "What is a robot" and "What is a program" and introduce the topic of pseudo code. There are many different methods when it comes to pseudo code, but this method will hopefully help teachers, parents, and students to understand how to take an idea for a program and turn it into actual NXT-G block code. All 36 blocks are covered (the book is useful for both the retail version software and the educational version), and each block ...more
[4] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-02-25 Summary: Great resource for NXT-G programming ... This book covers a lot of ground on NXT-G programming and is a must have resource for anyone serious about programming in NXT-G as the on line help included with the NXT set is not adequate. As a professional programmer and a robotics hobbyist, I would recommend that anyone wanting to bring out the full potential of their NXT creations move to a text based language like Robot-C instead. While NXT-G is good for simple programs, it is just to difficult to create anything of any complexity as the graphical elements and ...more
Editorial Reviews ... Product Description | The reader of this book will be someone looking for more detailed information on the NXT-G programming language used to program the LEGO Mindstorms NXT robotics kit. LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT-G Programming Guide is suitable for young programmers, age 10 and up, as well as parents and teachers who want to learn the new language for themselves or be able to assist students/children with learning to properly program their robots.

Building Robots with LEGO Mindstorms NXT
Customer Reviews [1] Rating: 4 Date: 2007-11-07 Summary: Good Book ... A good book with clear explanations and a non-intimidating style for beginners. A more detailed look at the NXT-G programming language would have been helpful, as this is the program that comes with the NXT retail kit. ...more

[4] Rating: 5 Date: 2007-09-25 Summary: Inspirational ... This book is just fantastic. Starts out with the basics for building strong stable robots, and moves on to more complex ideas. Great examples of robots throughout the book which will provide ideas for building your own masterpiece. It doesn't have step by step instructions, and is more of an ideas book for NXT enthusiasts. I'd recommend this for your home or Robotics club library. ...more
