Why is this classed as a books and not a pamphlet?

OK, so size isn't everything.  But for the price of this A5 pamphlet, you could buy an encyclopedia sized book on the same subject.

Don't think the bigger books are competition for this one, though.  They're designed for people who want to learn a subject and are prepared to put the time and effort in to do so; the target market for this comic is the kind who just want to parrot off answers in an interview.

This is not a "book," it's a 75-page booklet with very basic info. I'm surprised so many give this five stars. If you've never read or thought about the topic, ever, this book may be for you, but it's still rather over-priced at just under 12 dollars.  I must remember to start checking the number of pages. I'm laughing at how basic this is and what a fool I am to have spent anything on it.

I gave this two stars meaning "I don't like it".

My main gripe with this 'book' is that it is a 16 page pamphlet, and not a book. There is not even a spine with writing on it- even a magazine, as this as it is, has a spine with writing.

The information is good, but if I were the author I would add in a table of contents, etc to make this more like a book. I wouldn't pay this much for a pamphlet.

This isn't really a "book" . It was more like a really general article which could have been written after an hour or two of research. Proof that anything can be published nowadays.

[added this in March 2013] I've been asked to remove my one-star review because it doesn't directly relate to the contents of the DVD. That's a fair critique, so I'm giving it 3 stars. I don't want to remove the review entirely, since other people might also be confused about the format of this item.

[original review] I bought this item thinking it was a book, based on the headline and the description. It turned out to be a DVD. I contacted Amazon and they said they will be changing the item name and description so it is clearly stated that it is a DVD. I only realized my mistake after it arrived, and then noticed that when I magnified the photo of the item, I could see the words "DVD" along the spine of the cover. Thanks Amazon for quickly handling my issue. (I'm returning it, so I haven't opened the DVD, and can't comment on the quality of the content.)

This book is hardly a book. It is mostly just a compilation of photographs with short captions for some of the images. This is more of a coffee table book rather something you would actually read.

This isn't a book. It's essentially a sales pamphlet for Rainsong Guitars, perhaps written by a motivated fan?

So how disappointed was I when it was so short?  No warning it is not a book.  This would have been clear if it was a paper book.  I found the story abbreviated in many ways.

Very short....this isn't a book.  It's a pamphlet that was probably written in 2005 but published in 2013.  A lot of the stuff isn't on Amazon anymore.

The information should have been on a blog post not in a book.

$1.99 is cheap lesson to learn not to have anything to do with this author.

I don't recommend this book..You can probably learn more from the forums under book marketing in Author Central.

this "book" was billed as a beginners but it is really more like an outline or pamphlet than a true book...pretty disappointed

WHY IS THIS BOOK LISTED UNDER THE "HUMOR" CATEGORY????? THIS IS A BOOK ABOUT THE HOLOCAUST. I DONT THINK THATS CONSIDERED HUMOR...

Probably could convey the whole message of this book in a 2 page pamphlet. You'll want to get rid of it with the rest of your clutter - probably before you finish reading the whole thing.

I've just flipped through it, but it looks like there is quite a bit of information.
It's just a pamphlet.

This needs to be labeled as a pamphlet - I bought it as a Christmas gift and now I need to buy something else as well since this was so minimal.  Disappointed that I pressed buy too quickly and did not see the page numbers it contained.

I mean it says that right on this Amazon website and it is advertized as a mini book so why would any intelligent (key word: intelligent) think otherwise before buying it?
Next time before posting and making a fool out of yourself, why not try reading the Amazon website first? Good advice? Your welcome!

This does not qualify as a paper back.
 It has large print as for a child.
I see no reason for these few pages to have been published.

This to me is not a book, or short story.  It feels like it is the first two chapters from the actual book that I guess is for sell somewhere else.
