Mondo Magnets: 40 Attractive (and Repulsive) Devices and Demonstrations

This book covers a great variety of magnetic phenomena. In fact, I don't think there is any other kind of phenomenon left out. So the variety is not just many variations on a theme. Yes there are inspired variariations -- but on several themes. But also some other phenomena most folks don't cover. The book does better than the video in explaining the magnetic mechanistics. I find it all 100% accessible, but I know alot about magnetism already. If only I could be sure that enough background was given for the magnetics novice to understand the explanations given, then I'd go to the 5th star. For the variety of variations, for the variety of phenomena, for the inspired implications, for the surprising results that are given explanations -- this book is a gem.
