Hi Rob,
I have the book. As a matter of fact, it was this book that prompted the
post.
Unfortunately the Master got it wrong: on page 39 and the diagrams on
pages 46-50. The error is very glaring in the worm-gear combination

I urge you to re-read your Mindstorms books to see which other ones have
got the gear ratio confused coz I'm not going to reveal them.
Have fun learning, as always :-)
