The title does not lie, this is the Best 3-D book I have ever seen. The photos actually pop out. There is a wide variety of sports covered in this book and the pictures are of the highest quality. You will be amazed at the detail of the 3-D images. This book is not just for kids, it is great for young and old alike.

Not just for kids - WOW! 10 STARS!

Over the past few years, I have gotten into 3D photography. It is only recently I have decided to buy some books showcasing 3D photography. I've bought maybe a dozen, and I must say this book is INCREDIBLE.
I am far from being a kid - I enjoyed this book thoroughly. The photos presented are just fantastic. David Klutho is an amazing 3D photographer. I'm not into sports much, but this book is very entertaining. The photo I like best is the one with the all of the sports gear - baseball, hockey puck, etc - which is laid flat and viewed from an angle - the object appear like a real baseball, hockey puck, etc - which you can reach down and pick up - this is a very neat trick. (they are called Phantograms - which is any 3D photo that appears to pop right off of the page)
There's a lot of "out-of-window" action going on in the book, which is really nice. Anaglyphs, by their very nature are known for muted colors and ghosting of images in each eye. These photos can be viewed very nicely with not much of either - the author really knows how to shoot photos for anaglyph - something I am not good at (yet).
The author is well aware of the rules of sterecopy, or stereographic photography, and it shows in every photo shown in this book. I find myself viewing these images again and again.
I would recommend this book to anyone who want's to see photographs in a way they have never seen them before.
I'd give the book 10 starts if I could.

Stunning 3D
April 5 2009

This book is stunning in its 3D photography - one of the best analglyph (red/blue) books I have ever seen. The price is right from this vendor - bought 2 so far will buy another soon. If I have one very minor criticism, it is that there is some ghosting with the cyan lens of the right side. Maybe if the cyan lens were slightly darker it might help. That's why I keep a pair of red/blue glasses with me as well. Most of the pictures are excellent. Make sure that you have a lot of light to view the pictures esp. sunlight. Analglyphs need much light. Also make sure that the light enters from the top of the book - not the sides - you'll get glare from side lighting. I like to place the book near a sunny window. Get yourself a copy - one for your kids. It is truly a spectacular book. 3D photog. is a hobby (one of many) of mine. Hopefully you got yourself the Sports Illustrated 3D issues. They were spectacular as well. Happy viewing!
