For perspective on my review, I'm a fan of Adam Savage and a fan of making generally. I also dabble in a variety of types of making (sewing and writing among them by Adam's definition).If you are a maker, this is a great book full of great tips, tricks, and life lessons about how to be a better maker and how to have joy and success in your builds. If you don't think of yourself as a maker, I think this is still a great book. You might start reading and discover that by Adam's definition you are a maker, or you might just learn a lot of interesting strategies for how to think through problems, communicate, and share ideas that can be applied to anything in your life.I thoroughly enjoyed this book even though as a maker I'm very different from Adam Savage. There were some amazing lessons about life, about communication, and about committing to what you're passionate about that I think are applicable to everyone. Is there a maker in your life you'd like to encourage? This would be a great book for them, whether they're brand new to it or have been making for years.
