Getting Started With Lego Mindstorms Reviews

A MINDSTORMS set will direct you to build and program a robot, but Getting Started with LEGO (R) MINDSTORMS will tell you how to build and program with its open-ended prompts.
-Joe Meno, BrickJournal

Written with a friendly, easy-to-follow voice . . . a supremely intuitive guide that's meant to foster an interest in programming, building, and working with LEGO Mindstorms robots.
