The 88 laser-based projects presented here are geared toward the garage-shop tinkerer on a limited budget. Spanning a wide range of disciplines, the projects vary from experimenting with laser optics... This description may be from another edition of this product.
Mr. McComb, if you're reading this, thank you. This book really brought me into the laser forefront. I've been doing circuit analysis/design for about 2 years now (ever since I graduated High School) and this book was my first in-depth exposure to projects dealing in lasers. Since I first read it, I have proceeded to build an exremely large laser show setup, basing some of the simpler functions off your circuits. Just want to say that this is a great platform book! A great place to start for someone in the field of electronics interested in getting into laser systems. BTW, if anyone else is interested in laser shows, gimme and e-mail.
An excellent well-written, understandable book that contains many surprisingly sophisticated projects; such as a laser seismograph, that can actually be built by the home hobbyist. This book is as useful today (1998) as when it was written. In fact the projects are now even cheaper and more practical to build! My personal favorite electronic project book.
