Projects for evil geniuses? Or is it genii? I must not qualify as either, but I sure enjoyed this book. Lots of DIY possibilities to become either the Evil Genius or biggest Pest on your block. Great gift for twin nephews. Had to give it to both of them because we certainly weren't going to label one of the other as the 'evil' twin. Good investment - hours of fun projects.

I wouldn't say these gadgets are precisely evil but they are nicely modified items of electronics. The book offers many schematics that were a bit tough for me to really understand since it's pretty much electrical engineering, but nonetheless it should be interesting for some.

something for everyone in here to try or get once have fun

Reasonably helpful, especially if you want to bug a box of tissue, track someone's key strokes, etc. Made for the beginner with some basic electronics background. No, we haven't tried them. =)
