Simply and clearly written.  Valuable guidelines.  I don't care for the emphasis on religious writing, but that does not detract from the value of the recommendations.

As it states, this book is geared to the beginner and establishes hirigana and katakana first and goes into basic words and phrases. This is a very good beginners book and a valuable reference for hirigana and katakana.  The text is written very concisely and clearly. An excellent purchase for the beginner.

This is a wonderful book for anyone just starting out knitting or someone who wants to learn all the basics. The book is a great step-by-step guide that walks the reader through the various knitting types. Never had I thought myself knitting because as a novice, all hope was lost. However, I never gave up on my desire to knit and this book which became a saviour has really helped in fulfilling that desire. This book provides details ranging from basics about needles and yarn to comprehensive instructions on how to bind off and cast off. The video links and photos are also valuable and it gives you clearer understanding about knitting. I highly recommend this book for any beginner learning knitting.

If you are a complete beginner, as my wife was a day ago, then this is a very useful guide. It is very basic but its supposed to be for beginners. But you will be up to speed in no time, as it is really well laid out, and easy to follow.

This is an excellent beginner's guide to gardening. It has a broad variety of plants, as well as a month-by-month guide to planting and harvesting. It is a perfect companion for someone getting their first in-the-ground garden. It does not have many tips on container gardening specifically. The focus is on fruits, veggies, and herbs; flowers are included, but they are not the center. If you want to learn how to garden for eating, this is the book for you.

Excellent beginners guide to setting up a home audio studio. Clear -- explains the underlying concepts and expands into the specifics of what you need to know and do. Would have enjoyed more diagrams / drawings / photos but there are other resources for such things on the Web.
