Helpful but needs latest books to be added

Helpful to understand the order but it needs to be updated as it doesn't have the most recent books listed.

Would give it 5 stars if it came with a current list of books because all the books listed at the end of each chapter are brilliant except scarce, used, sold by 3rd parties. Other than that, I wish schools had enough brains to adopt this as their standard because even the best private schools are completely disorganized in their science teaching.

A good textbook - but it is in DESPERATE need of an update. With how fast technology changes, a new solid chapter on LMS systems would really help it out.

A newer version of these books just came out 2013.  You might want to wait for them or download them from the atitesting website if you have an account with access.

Overall helpful, but I wish there were more useful, every day phrases shown. Also, glossary is limited. Perhaps the additional books expand on the glossary.

Of course there needs to be an update to include more recent events, but the info. included was well done.  I might suggest more info. on reproductions  - including photos.

Latest edition but old now.  Still very useful except some restaurants recommended no longer exist.

Good lists of books divided by regions and ages. But, some of the books were so old! It seems like their would be newer picture books of different cultures and ways of living than 1997, for example.

It's nice to have a book with 100 common Korean verbs which is visually appealing and helpful. The conjugation charts are very useful. The introduction explains the conjugations pretty well. Talk to Me in Korean's free lessons on their website are always a fun and entertaining way to pick up Korean from native speakers with a deeper understanding of usage than one usually finds, so this purchase supports their efforts. However, there are a few areas where the book could be improved which keep it from 5 star territory. These could easily be fixed for future editions:
1. Cost is a little high for what it is, i.e. conjugation charts for a 100 verbs and a handful of examples for each.
2. Should probably be one volume, as there really isn't enough content to warrant breaking it up into 2 volumes.
3. Some modal tenses are missing from the conjugation charts. These are easy and common structures so I think they should be included. Some of the missing verbs endings include those for "I have to ...", "Should we ...", "I would like to ...", "May I ...". It would be helpful if some more of these common forms were included on the conjugation charts and explained in the intro.
4. Five examples for each are just too few. More examples please if possible.

Need a book like this but more up to date.  Very informative though.

The format and content met my expectations.  It is intended to be a quick overview of each of the individual books with key players, audience and message.  I really liked the way in which the summaries were written, however, I had hoped for a little more.  This is a great idea but not every book can (or should) be explained in a couple of paragraphs.  I would have like to see the longer and more in depth books be given an extra page or so of content.

Overall I would recommend it, just don't expect this to be a comprehensive explanation of all 66 books.

I like the book and find it useful however because the terms are listed by English sometimes it can be difficult to use overall I feel that the 4 volumes set is a good buy and worth it

It was helpful and a nice addition. I just wish it had more pages. But if it's on sale, it's worth it.

Useful to a point, but could be in larger format with color photography and needs an update. Still useful though.

This seminal work is essential for navigating the often confusing path to being a superstar mommy blogger; however, I did find it lacking in certain areas that need to be addressed in the second edition. For example, including sections on capitalizing on multi-racial children and twins and or multiple children would really enhance one's ability to turn a financial burden into a reliable revenue stream. Also a more in depth analysis of the business aspect of this career path would be useful. Primarily I am interested in an analysis of the point of diminishing returns on having multiple children and addressing niche markets such as twins and triplets.

I also look forward to future editions addressing the transition to teenage years and how to plan for retirement when your children go to college. Could there possibly be a text addressing "Empty Nest Blogging for Dummies" aka Children were the only thing holding our marriage together now what?

All in all this was extremely useful in turning a financially crippling situation into a profitable one.

I found this guide helpful for its concise introduction, history, sights, and practicalities to the city. This 2011 edition does need an update, and I would like to see a simple map to show where the neighborhoods are. A better table of contents would make navigation easier. For the price, I think it is worth getting.

I think the ideas in the book are good, but the book is old and needs to be updated to be more useful.
