No one is saying that you should craft a DIY airplane out of trash bags and a lawnmower engine. But with this book, you could.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe first official how-to guide to the MacGyver universe, this book is packed with how-to drawings and step-by-step descriptions of the hacks that made this character the world’s most resourceful secret agent. Based on the hit new series, with shout-outs to the classic show that started it all.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEach section introduced by Dr. Rhett Alain, the show’s resident physicist, who helps ensure the show’s science is based in . . . something resembling reality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFull-color photos illustrate Angus MacGyver in his element (which is to say, danger!), and illustrated how-to drawings show exactly how it was done.
