Book Description
Make magazine, the first magazine devoted to Tech DIY projects, hardware hacks, and DIY inspiration, has been hailed as "a how-to guide for the opposable thumb set" and "Popular Mechanics for the modern age." Now, following on the heels of Make's wildly popular issues, O'Reilly offers Makers, a beautiful hardbound book celebrating creativity, resourcefulness, and the DIY spirit. The book profiles 100 people and their homebrew projects, describing technologies old and new in service of the serious and the amusing, the practical and the outrageous. The collection explores both the projects and the characters behind them, and includes full-color photographs and instructions to inspire inventors of all stripes.
