La 4e de couverture indique : "Le Lego est l'un des jouets les plus célèbres au monde, mais peut-il être un support de pensée ? Mieux encore, peut-on s'inspirer de son fonctionnement pour construire un système philosophique ? C'est le point de départ de la stimulante réflexion de Tommaso W. Bertolotti. Les philosophes et les constructeurs de Lego se nourrissent à la fois de liberté et de méthode. Liberté de mélanger les modèles, de tester une méthode issue d'un autre domaine, de reproduire une virtuosité constructive dans un registre différent ou encore de varier l'échelle de la construction. Modulaires par définition, le Lego et la philosophie proposent des modèles qui autorisent, voire encouragent à s'en détacher, afin de laisser libre cours à une réflexion créatrice. Naviguant de la philosophie ancienne aux sciences cognitives, Tommaso W. Bertolotti éclaire d'un regard malicieux et ludique l'art de philosopher et la passion des Lego."

"LEGOfied: Building Blocks as Media offers a multi-faceted exploration of LEGO fandom, addressing a blindspot in current accounts of LEGO and an emerging area of interest to media scholars: namely, the role of hobbyist enthusiasts and content producers in LEGO's emergence as a ubiquitous transmedia franchise. This book examines a range of LEGO hobbyism and their attendant forms of mediated self-expression and identity (their "technicities"): artists, aspiring Master Builders, collectors, and entrepreneurs who refashion LEGO bricks into new commodities (sets, tchotchkes, and minifigures). The practices and perspectives that constitute this diverse scene lie at the intersection of multiple transformations in contemporary culture, including the shifting relationships between culture industries and the audiences that form their most ardent consumer base, but also the emerging forms of entrepreneurialism, professionalization, and globalization that characterize the burgeoning DIY movement."--

Congratulations! You're on Mars Base Alpha, the first human outpost on the red planet. Don't relax, though. It's not all roses and unicorns up here. Mars isn't called "The Bringer of War" for nothing! You've just been rained on by a meteor shower and it's up to you you! to put your LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT robotics skills to work to save the day, and the base! And that's only the beginning of the challenges that lie ahead. LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT: Mars Base Command is a book of challenge. It's about challenging yourself to design and build robots to solve problems, tough problems. Taking a similar approach to best-selling LEGO author James Kelly's other books, this book presents a series of four challenges in the setting of mankind's first-ever manned base on the planet Mars. Each challenge begins with a backstory to set the scene. You're given instructions for constructing a playing field, including devices that your eventual robot must manipulate. Your job is to build a robot that will execute the challenge and garner you the most points. The book requires the LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT Education Resource Set. Scoring sheets are included that allow for the book's use in educational and group settings. Teachers can base lesson plans around the different concepts taught in each challenge. Groups and clubs can choose to run mini-competitions in which teams or individuals compete against each other in a race to save the base. LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT: Mars Base Command is an excellent choice for an individual, a group, or a teacher wishing to learn about and have more fun with LEGO's best-selling robotics platform. Please note: the print version of this title is black & white; the eBook is full color.
