    “Donat (independent scholar) provides a volume that is about equally divided between background material (Python, Circuits, the Raspberry Pi) and a set of stimulating ‘maker’ projects that combine coding, circuit-building, and mechanical construction. The writing style is casual but clear. … the determined hobbyist with sufficient experience will find the background material useful and the projects challenging, stimulating, and rewarding, and the book likewise serves as a useful resource for libraries hosting makerspaces.” (C. Vickery, Choice, Vol. 56 (6), February, 2019)
