Absolute Beginner's Guide to Building
Robotsby Gareth Branwyn
ISBN: 0-7897-2971-7,
384 Pages, August 2003
Finally, a robots book for people who don't know the first
thing about robotics!

Absolute Beginner's Guide to Robots is
well-written, inviting, and action-packed, with engaging ideas
and fascinating factoids about robots and robot-related arts
and sciences. You are led gently into the intimidating world
of robotics, but nearly 400 pages
later, you emerge with a respectable knowledge of robot
history, the major fields and "schools"
of robotics today, and the basic skills and resources needed
to create hobby robots. By the end of the book, you will be
the proud owner of three bots, the first two of which
demonstrate key robotic principles.
The
third is a programmable/
expandable robot, which serves as a platform
for future experimentation. And best of all, these robots are
built with simple to get and inexpensive parts - many of which
you already have around the house!
