The Humble “Makerspace” Book Bundle<\/a> from No Starch Press is live<\/i><\/b> an insanely good deal!\u00a0 <\/span>Pay a buck, and get six rad DIY-ish books (including my first book\u2014Snip, Burn, Solder, Shred\u2014<\/i>as well as a few of my No Starch favorites). Pay $8, and get another six books (including my second DIY book, Junkyard Jam Band<\/i>).\u00a0 <\/span>Pay a bit more\u2026well, you get the picture.\u00a0 <\/span>All in, you can drop $20 and get more than $400 worth of DIY while supporting excellent charities.\u00a0\"HUMBLE-00ca3c278db017f39d002720c906997f81f5958d\"<\/p>\n

There are so<\/i> many books I love in this one!\u00a0Yoshihito Isogawa’s LEGO Technic books are both\u00a0amazing\u00a0<\/em>and agelessly inspiring,\u00a0Carlos Bueno’s\u00a0Lauren Ipsum<\/em> has been huge for my son (he read it twice in a row when it first came out, and still hits it again a few times a year now\u2014it’s like the Information Age’s\u00a0Phantom Tollbooth<\/em>), No Starch’s Scratch and Arduino books are rock solid, and\u00a0Jason R. Briggs’s\u00a0Python for Kids<\/em> is an excellent intro to Python for\u00a0everyone<\/em> (i.e., it’s how I learned enough Python to work on a documentation project with a U-M roboticist last year).<\/p>\n

Also, I’ll level with you: These bundles (and book\/game bundles in general) are a\u00a0huge<\/em> boost to authors\/creators, both in\u00a0getting\u00a0our names and ideas out there, and in getting money into our pockets.\u00a0 When you buy a bundle like this, you’re doing a Good Thing\u2122 for the dissemination of new art and human knowledge, in addition to getting a good deal.<\/p>\n
