An important industry-insider perspective on maker culture and open source work, with a particular focus on moving from hobby to business and on 3D printing. Highly recommended. Review copy (digital galley) provided by the publisher via NetGalley.com . (178) ( )

Anderson, the editor in chief of Wired, is famously optimistic about all things tech, but this look at the modern DIY movement seems pretty plausible. Covering all aspects of this new industrial revolution, from tools to financing, this book makes some very insightful points. The recommendations he offers have even inspired me to give some of this a try. ( )

Excellent introduction into the Maker movement. He thinks there will be a new industrial revolution caused by personal manufacturing which will be similar to what happened with the computer revolution. We are at the very beginning. His prediction that this new technology will bring jobs back from overseas is an encouraging one. He also applies his insights from his previous works Free and The Long Tail (both are must reads) to this topic.
Some great reviews are:

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0307720950, Hardcover)

Wired magazine editor and bestselling author Chris Anderson takes you to the front lines of a new industrial revolution as today’s entrepreneurs, using open source design and 3-D printing, bring manufacturing to the desktop.  In an age of custom-fabricated, do-it-yourself product design and creation, the collective potential of a million garage tinkerers and enthusiasts is about to be unleashed, driving a resurgence of American manufacturing.  A generation of “Makers” using the Web’s innovation model will help drive the next big wave in the global economy, as the new technologies of digital design and rapid prototyping gives everyone the power to invent -- creating “the long tail of things”.
