Good wide-ranging and informative book on drive circuitry, sensor design and integration, and mechanicals, with quite a bit of practical electronics.

[Daniel Maturana · Rating 4 out of 5]

Easy to follow and very detailed. Probably the best book for hobbyists building robots by themselves.

[John Purvis · Rating 5 out of 5]

Thorough discussion of building a robot from scratch.
