- A great book! If you have an Arduino then buy it
I've recently got into the Arduino microcontroller, it's a really useful little gadget and I'd mastered the basics of it: turning on LEDs, simple serial communication with an LCD display and other basic electronics but I thought I'd bitten off more than I could chew when I bought a bluetooth module to hook the arduino up wirelessly with my computer.

Not so! This book is brilliant and one of the projects early on in the book covered exactly what I needed to know. The projects are detailed and all the code is provided (although it would be better if it was on a CD as well). It has really pushed me to the next level!!

- Cracking book
Although this isn't a manual for the arduino (or related microprocessors) this book will really help if you are doing anything with them. The theory is well presented, well explained Computer Science ... a very good book.

- Electronic Fun Without Soldering
This is a lovely book. It is packed full of projects for building embedded controllers which use almost every practical form of interface technology: lights, motors, switches, blue-tooth, rfid, USB, etc. Just about anything you might like to try. Then the book's three great strengths emerge: you don't need to solder, electronics modules are low-cost, and the software is free. All of the projects are assembled using breadboard and wires, removing one difficulty in this age of surface mount chippery. The Arduino controller is advertised in Europe for 22 euro's, and the software is available as Open Source. Together these put projects into the price range of smart, dextrous 10 year olds with doting parents. The projects are very well illustrated ... Read More:
