Kindle Edition is useless, don't waste your money.

I am never buying an e-textbook again.  At least not until some glaring shortcomings in the technology are corrected.

First of all, there is no intuitive or even sensible way to navigate to a given location in the book.  One would think that the sections or page numbers listed in the Table of Contents might be touch clickable, but they're not.  Let's say you want to go to Chapter 3, Tutorial 4.  In the hard copy book, that's on page 3-43.  In the Kindle Edition, there are no page numbers; it's "Location 4410 of 27223."  But you won't know that until after you've used the scroll bar to get roughly where you need to be (Hey, who knows?  You might get lucky!) and then flip a bunch of pages to find it.  Trust me, when your professor tells the class to go to page [x], this is a BIG problem.

Speaking of the Table of Contents, let's talk about accessing the pop-up menu at the bottom-center of the screen.  The TOC is listed right under "Cover," but it's grayed out.  You can't even navigate directly to it!  You have to select "Beginning" directly under the TOC, and then flip pages forward.  So don't you think "Beginning" should be listed **before** the TOC?  The next listed item is the "Location..." button.  We've pretty much covered this.  How are you going to know which of those 27,223 "locations" you want unless you've already been there and oh, I don't know, done something more useful and bookmarked it??  Skip over "Sync to Furthest Page" in the menu and go directly to "Book Extras."  Wait, no.  Don't go there, because if you attempt to access these Extras, whatever they are, you'll just get an error message:  "An unexpected error occurred.  Please try opening Book Extras again."  Don't do that either, because it won't work.

If you've somehow managed to get somewhere in this book and are actually attempting to make use of it (crazy concept, I know), good luck to you.  There are lots of illustrations ("Figures") that show the dimensions of the buildings you need to draw.  The images are so small that the dimensions can't be read, so what to do?  Long-press on the image and pick "Zoom" from the context menu, of course.  Trouble is, these are raster images that just get fuzzy and pixelated when you zoom in on them.  Absolutely useless.

I think that's everything I've noticed so far, but even if there's more, I've given ample evidence that this Kindle Edition should be avoided at all cost.  I went straight to the school bookstore and bought the hard copy after class today.

This edition is not compatible with the Kindle. The font is tiny and cannot be adjusted - you can only zoom in on the actual page. Complete waste of money and unfortunately there are no alternatives to order.

The Kindle edition is nothing like the print edition.  The notes are in their own section, and you have to scroll all the way through the notes starting from Genesis.  The Kindle edition is awful.

I haven't even gotten past the introduction and do not know how much more I can read because the errors in the Kindle edition are HORRIBLE. The same sentences doubled in the same paragraph, another sentence that obviously comes from some other paragraph in the middle of the sentence that I am reading that makes absolutely no sense whatsoever...the table of contents page is in jumbles...someone really needs to edit this before allowing anymore Kindle editions to be sold. Rated so low just because of the errors.

The formatting of the Kindle Edition is so poor that the book is unreadable.  Do not buy it!  There is a free, readable, public domain Kindle Edition of this book available.  It is the better alternative.

I cannot speak to the actual content of the dictionary. The Kindle edition is not at all easy to navigate and essentially makes this dictionary worthless. If I could "return" this for a refund I would.

The Kindle version is a waste of money.
Very poor editing, photos fuzzy, can't zoom in on Kindle App (iPad).

This review is a quick FYI not on the content itself, but the kindle edition. Other reviewers have thoroughly covered the content of this cookbook, and I agree with the positive reviews.

However, the formatting for the kindle edition is beyond terrible, to the point that I haven't used the cookbook nearly as much as I would like. The images are randomly at the end of recipes, the text is choppy, and the book extremely cumbersome to navigate through. It's frustrating to waste money on duplicate content, but I am most likely going to bite the bullet and order the hard copy, too, just so I can actually use and enjoy this book.

If you are interested in this cookbook, don't bother trying to save money on the kindle edition. It isn't worth it.

This is a pdf scan from a paper Bible.  It might be readable on a computer screen where you can enlarge easily, but it is worthless on a Kindle.

The Kindle version is useless. You cannot adjust the font and it was so small it could not be read. I quickly returned it, very disappointed.

Maybe I am not a Kindle person, but this baby book is nearly impossible to read on a Kindle. The pictures, table, and figures are all over the place, which makes a recipe nearly impossible to follow. The printed book may be okay, but definitely do not buy the Kindle edition.

The contents and writing is fine.  The equations are unreadable on both my paper white  and kindle hd.  Can't believe this book was released in this format. Don't waste your money on the kindle editions, get the physical book.  I'm very disappointed, I was really looking forward to this book.

I moved to Brazil in July 2012, and bought the paperback book before moving here, but unfortunately left it packed in my belongings to store, back in California. So after I got to Brazil, I bought the Kindle version.

It is completely useless! I wish I had an easy way of taking a screen snapshot of this ridiculous book on the Kindle--on the same page, I have HUGE 24 POINT TYPE for a chapter sub-heading, and then tiny little type that is only a few millimeters high, for the actual words I am supposed to be studying.

There is no reasonable way to go to a list of verbs, and then jump from there to a page that lists useful conjugations of those verbs.

I am making great progress learning Portuguese, but this book is not any part of that process! The publishers ought to be ashamed of themselves for putting out a Kindle version that is so useless, and charging money for it.

There is no actual "text" in this book.  It's just a series of images of scanned pages.  You can't search or resize the text.  I assumed the "Kindle edition" would have at least converted the content of the scans into manipulable text; that's the whole point of buying it from Amazon instead of just downloading the primary source for free.  I did find a free html version, and that's considerably easier to read on my Kindle.

The book itself, I'd give three stars.
The Kindle edition would get zero stars because it is useless without a navigable recipe index.  There is NO excuse for a cookbook not to have a recipe index with active hyperlinks back to the recipe page.  And please don't tell me that Kindle has a search function.  I am aware of that, just as I am aware that it is completely useless with cookbooks.  So until and unless the author and publisher decide to step up their game with e-books, don't waste you money on the electronic edition.

As for the content of the book, it is thorough.  One can learn a lot from it, but one can also be so intimidated by the dictates and persnicketyness that it will suck all the fun out of baking.  I think I'm just burned out on the whole "bible" format and its inherent way of making things appear far more complicated than they need to be.  I don't find the results to be any better for all the "rules."

I'm profoundly disappointed.  This Kindle edition is just a "converted to eBook" version of the text transcriptions which have been on the internet since the '90s. Who authorized this?  The current version at hermetic.com has been improved over the years to the point where this Kindle version is just a sad relic.  The Book of Lies deserves a high quality Kindle version.  Avoid this one.

Kindle version is almost useless because of broken formatting.
