The book is basically a scam and panned. He talks about automata like it was new and he invented it. I strongly suggest you read the Amazon reviews.

- sitkack 10y agoOn the plus side it is full of pretty pictures, has a massive number of pages which can be used to press leaves or flowers, heat in the winter and a door stop in the summer to encourage airflow. There really isn't a bad quality about this book. Oh, and super cheap on the used market.
