3.0 out of 5 stars A book of ideas..., 28 Jan 2009
By John Burns (London, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I had a real problem with this book. I work in automation and control systems and found this book was either too vague or far too specific with ideas.

There wasn't enough detail on some of the fundamentals of RFID while most of the projects were so specific they required a certain electronic door look to be used so that a hack could be soldered to 2 pins in it.

Most of the people who would be taking on the projects in this book would be smart enough to only need the basic idea to be able to work out their own solution given their budget and available hardware.

That said, the book has a brilliant section on RFID implants which for me, made the book worth the money.
