Demonstration manuals

There are several good books in the demo room that describe a wide variety of physics demonstrations and experiments. These are all good resources for anyone who's interested in putting together a demo that does not appear in the on-line catalog, or who would like a more detailed description of demonstrations which are in the catalog.
