Reviews
"Hardware, says Bunnie Huang, is a world without secrets: if you go deep enough, even the most important key is expressed in silicon or fuses. His is a world without mysteries, only unexplored spaces. This is a look inside a mind without peer." --Edward Snowden "A tour-de-force that combines the many genius careers of one of the world's great hacker-communicators: practical, theoretical, philosophical and often mind-blowing. Huang isn't just explaining how to make things, he's peeling back the roofs of factories, the surfaces of microcontrollers, and even the human genome. The secret workings of our world are laid bare and the levers by which they may be moved are put in the reader's hands." --Cory Doctorow, Author of Little Brother and technology activist "bunnie lives in the world of hardware where the solder meets the PCB. He has more practical experience and is a better teacher of how the ecosystem of hardware works than any other person I've ever met, and I know a lot of people in this space. He has rendered this experience and expertise into an amazing book--a hacker's-point-of-view-bible to anyone trying to work in or understand and work in the emerging and evolving world of hardware." --Joi Ito, Director, MIT Media Lab

- e***i (77)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseItem condition was described as Very Good, the item received seemed brand new, and shipped fast. Great value! Despite being packed well for the cost (free!), the item was handled roughly during shipping causing minor dings to the edges. This is no fault of the seller, just something to keep in mind as a risk incurred with items shipped within the US. Will purchase from this seller again! Thank you!
