### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good book
*by S***E on 27 January 2026*

Very helpful book if that’s what you’re interested in

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great book
*by V***X on 26 May 2024*

Lovely book, wish they still had the museum in Covent Garden. Loved visiting there as a child and really inspired me to pursue a career in Engineering.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sketchy but very useful
*by B***K on 24 January 2018*

A very useful introduction to making automata. It begins with some basic principles of physics and mechanics and goes on to describe the application of these to automata with good practical tips. Chapters are: Some Principles, Levers, Shafts, Cranks, Cams, Springs, Linkages, Ratchets, Drives & Gearing, Control (electrical), The Checklist, Bibliography. All illustrations inside the book are sketches, and although a number of automata are shown in this way, sufficiently to deduce how they work, there are no patterns to make them. I was initially disappointed at the size of the book and the lack of patterns (I should have read the description better!) but now think it will be a valuable guide and reference when I eventually begin to build my own machines for fun.
