Arduino Step By Step -- TODAY ONLY $25

[Perknose]

$25 today from BitsduJour, which represents a perhaps mythical 75% off. <shrug> Their "deal clock" says I/we have 16 hours from 11:00am EDT today, 10/29/14.

Link. For Mac & PC.

Start with the basics of the Arduino platform, then branch out with hands-on work with sensors that allow you to measure acceleration, light, humidity, and temperature. Move up to programming interactions using buttons, screens, keypads, and flex sensors. Then really bring your gadget to life by connecting it to your LAN and the Internet. Arduino Step by Step will even show you how to control your invention remotely. All of this knowledge is delivered in 15.5 hours of content spread across 92 lectures.

I wonder if this is useful. I'm always skeptical about these "all in one" type deals.

Sounds like they're selling what you can learn for free online. Granted, they probably package it a lot better than random forum posts.

mysensors.org is pretty good for building various sensors, especially if you have a Mi Casa Verde.
