This is a good book for woodworkers and makers that want to learn the “lost art” of finding the right proportions for their designs. The book covers how whole number ratios can simplify our designs and make them feel pleasing and natural. The authors go in to great detail about the use of ratios in design and the big takeaway is that so many of the objects we interact with and enjoy are that way because they are designed to human-scale. It is also helpful for the precision-obsessed craftsman to read a book like this one, as it makes a great point that our work needs to be neat and accurate, but machine-level precision is not necessary to designing and building beautiful projects. My only criticism is that the book does become a bit monotonous while making these points. That being said, I’d highly recommend this book to anyone that doesn’t know where to start or would like to improve their design skills.

It’s hard to understate how impressive this book is. It’s big on ideas about how we view the complexity of human civilization. The book is not nearly as heavy-handed as other dystopian/utopian novels like Atlas Shrugged, Brave New World, etc. Instead, Le Guin juxtaposes what we might call capitalists and communists in a way that helps explore what works and doesn’t work in those societies, without arguing that any particular way of life is “the one true way.” An amazing book.

A lightweight read. Enjoyable, but the story and writing felt a little bit contrived and simplistic.

This is a great book that explores basic physics concepts in entertaining and approaching ways. This would be a great gift to a that special nerd in your life (if they don’t already have a copy), or a clever kid that is interested in how things work (probably in the 12+ age range).

Entertaining, but somewhat predictable. It does have some nice “science-y” moments that describe how things would work on the moon, many of which are non-intuitive for an Earth-dweller like me. This will definitely be made into an enjoyable movie.
