507 Mechanical Movements Paperback – 1 January 2013

I like the various movement illustrations. The description given for each is very short and that's the reason 500+ illustrations could be fitted in this book. The book is definitely an "ok" reprint and slightly obfuscated at places because of OCR scan on typewriter font didn't go well for this one. Eventually, if one has a knack for crafting things that move, this book can offer ideas. With a 3D printer, one can actually assemble most of these movement designs at home. Definitely a recommend for the tinkerers and curious folks.

Look at the photographs i have shared. On the front it says, printed in the USA on acid free paper...and on the back it says printed in India!And i seriously doubt that it is acid free paper...more like photocopy paper.Resembles a pdf file printed on a laser printer and hardbound.For the price...it is not justified.Contents are very interesting, so i am not returning it.

Saw this book on a YouTube short and decided to buy it which was well with it. Has great illustrations and explanations. It was great to pass time on a plane ride

Perfect explanations definitely a must

It advertises 507 mechanical movements but the only mechanical movement this book makes is the turning of pages, 0/10Jokes aside, all of the information on this book is available for free on the web as it is a public domain title, but if you are a fan of physical copies such as I, this softcover will serve you very well. It is affordable, the printing quality is authentic to the originals, and it solidly built.Overall, a good addition to any bookshelf.As for the contents, if you're one who upon understanding how a simple, ingenious solutions to a problem works opens up a wide, wonderment-full smile, this book is very much for you.
