An oldie but a goodie
This is a set of three somewhat aged Lego Mindstorms (not NXT) books. Each has a section on basic building techniques as well as a few robot designs you can build. There are lots of good ideas here and the authors are all Lego experts and worth reading.

The name says it all
Great mix of robots in this book--some "standard" variations on familiar prototypes (using UBS parts) and some pretty out there ones as well that I would have never thought of. Excellent book. I've seen the RIS one that came before this but didn't buy it--I'm going to go back and get it now.

Assemble your own Star Wars action robots

Constructing the robots is easy, each one is split into a series of small steps where the parts to be added are listed in a caption and the placement of the parts on the robot are highlighted on a second figure. We have all faced situations where ...

Where do they get these people?
Once again Syngres has put together a top notch team of Lego builders. The robots in here are incredible to say the least. I was amazed to see that CS Soh had a hand in this book as I've been a big fan of his LEGO work on the web for some time.
