Recommendation: meh 4.6 / 5 from 39 reviews

I think this book is better than his Simple Machines and Power Functions (Vol 1) books. Gets into some reasonably interesting (but still reasonably "simple") designs. As with Vol 1, you have to be rather visually/spatially oriented to reproduce his designs, since he just gives a few views of the designs--no stepwise building instructions. Second favorite of my 6 Lego-style books. Favorite is "The Unofficial Lego Technic Builder's Guide," which is essentially a detailed textbook on Lego Technic construction concepts.

Both volumes of the LEGO Power Functions Ideas Book include a parts list, indicating which parts are used in either one or both of the volumes. All elements are currently used in LEGO sets and are reasonably easy to get. Even so, the underlying idea isn't so much to show you how to build a specific contraption, but to inspire you to use construction ideas with different and varied LEGO parts.
