The Ultimate Raspberry Pi Handbook
Since 2013 I have written a lot of Raspberry Pi content for Future Publishing and sometimes this content is collected into special "bookazines", magazines devoted to one topic that cover 100+ pages.
For Future's latest bookazine they produced 180 pages of Raspberry Pi projects, reviews and features, and quite a lot of the content is mine...which I am rather pleased to see.
So what did I write?
