Recommendation: yes 9 / 10 by Jim

Whether you are a skilled builder or a novice, this book contains a wealth of interesting information. It is without a doubt the most comprehensible builder's guide to LEGO Technic. I highly recommend picking up a copy and enjoy the read!

Recommendation: meh 4.4 / 5 from 99 reviews

My 7 year old first checked this book it at the library. He loved it, so we bought him a copy. There book is more like a real text book. It gets into theory and practical aspects of working with bricks. It's also like a reference book, with the Bricopedia and has multiple case studies by way of some specific builds. Oh, the publisher has made the model instructions available on their website (at least as of June 2018, they were still available). Technical book. Not like the current trend of Lego picture books. Great for learning to be creative with using the bricks you have available for making MOCs.
