The Maker Movement Manifesto. Rules for innovation in the new world of crafters, hackers, and tinkerers. Mark Hatch.2014. ISBN 9780071821124. A terrific book that addresses many questions I had about the coming together of the Internet of things and the activities of the creatives among us. If you desire to build an innovative city, culture this is the book for you. The book makes a compelling argument for opening up the silos of equipment, machinery and expertise that our institutions are so protective of. If you want to learn the basics of spot welding in an hour, why can’t you. This brings to learning the minimum viable product idea from software design. If you wanted to actually “make ‘ something, where would you go now? This is more than software, this is real stuff. Very readable, compelling and mind opening I recommend this book to parents, youth, educators, librarians, creatives, tinkerers, and just about anyone in this wealthy society of ours. Good for a four hour plane ride. Hey if this is where Chris Anderson ( Makers, Long Tail) wants to spend his time, why not you?
