This "book" was copied off different internet blogs. It's a shameful attempt to scam people out of money. Glad I have Kindle Lending Library...

Someone is toying with a little false advertising here.

The two "Customer Images" posted above by "Andrew Harrington" are fake. Those are photos of "Carla of La Zona Models". Google it. The original photos are of her holding something completely different.

I suspect the same thing of the image uploaded by "The Maestro"; it looks like the book was Photoshop'd in.

Beyond that, the book has a novice feel, with poor layout, cheap production, and outdated information (e.g. clubs it mentions no longer exist).

Given that there are fake images planted in the "Customer Images", I suspect some of these 5-star reviews may be fake as well.

UPDATE 5/22: The fake images were removed sometime after I wrote this review; most likely removed by Amazon.

If you want to read about economics from someone who copy-pasted the entire book from google...buy this book. Otherwise, just read the original articles she lifted her book from. The irony of this books title is that she (bleeped) out one word. She should probably have done that for the rest of the book. Most of it is plagiarized word-for-word from investopedia and numerous other sources.

Looks like the same info I get from a couple of blogs that come up on the first page in a Google search. Nothing to see here. Move along.

At least that is what I would have given it had I reviewed it in the year 2000 when I read it for the first time. I think it is disingenuous to not mention that this is a re-release of a previously published book. I was reading along and wondering why this all seemed so familiar. Then I looked at the copyright page and--there it was--this is the October 2008 "first printing" of the "$6.99 edition"!

It has a new cover, a new copyright date, a new price, but it's the exact same book I had already read (and enjoyed) eight years ago in the $4.99 edition. I would have preferred to spend my $6.99 on a book I haven't read before and feel both foolish and cheated.

Dembski appears to be making a career of reshuffling previous contents and publishing them as new books. One might perhaps forgive this lack of originality if the contents were at least true. Unfortunately, the few bits of truth herein are used to paper over crumbling structures of non-sequiturs, misunderstandings, and misstatements -- the same hovels of fallacy and falsehood that had been previously published and thoroughly debunked, here presented again without any correction.

Why write or publish essentially the same book over and over, with different titles and covers? I suppose the answer is obvious, as long as customers keep buying it.

But then why *buy* the same book over and over? Unless one is supplying dummy books for the purely-decorative bookshelf market?

Or does someone hope to just stack the apparently-different books high to make the Intelligent Design movement seem productive of actual research, in the hope that no-one will open the pages and look inside?

Quite a few of these are already on Internet lists so this book seems like a collection of those rather than new and original material.  If you have never seen one of the online lists, then these might be funny to you.

I bought 2 books from Amazon to help me work on my Google Places ranking and paid approximately $25 for each.  I bought this book and another book called: Google Places Domination: The Ultimate Guide to a Top Ranked Google Places Listing by Joshua Precht.  Well it turns out that both boooks by 2 different authors have exactly the same text word for word with maybe a couple sentences changed.  It's really unbelievable that this day and age with all the technology that a publishing company would let someone get a way with this.  While I recommend the content - I think it is a scam to have 2 books with different titles, yet are exactly the same.

An author contact of mine protested about this book soon after it came out. It is a bad case of plagiarism. Mr Sutherland and (Ms?) Canwell have lifted material, text, appendices and many photos, from 3 other writers, then passed the work off as their own. With the possible (?) exception of the Norwich air raid all the air raid material has come from books by Messrs Boywer, Foynes and Gustavsson. All 5 appendices were copied almost totally verbatim. Crazily, the authors have even replicated the statistical and date errors of those they've copied.
The authors seem to think "the Nore" refers to all of wartime Eastern England, land and sea, yet within that compass they omit major aspects.
A very poor piece of "work" indeed.
Please do not help these authors, who continue to produce books in the same shoddy way--on just about every subject there is.
Their original background seems to be in childrens' story books and textbooks, if you check out the earlier of the 200 books they have written in the last decade, at the ratre of one every few weeks!

So-called "author" just takes recipes from internet, puts them in e-book form and calls them his own. Adds insult to injury by posting anti-plagiarizing notice on first page of each book. Click to look inside the book. Type the list of ingredients into google, and you will find the original recipes have all been plagiarized. If you want these recipes, just google them for free instead of paying money for stolen recipes.

This is the exact same book as previously attributed to the fake authors of "Pearl W. Dooley" and "Lauren A. White" with the exact same ripped off recipes, cut, cropped and pasted from food.com with nothing more than a different fake author name of "Steven W. Chakos".  Where does this fake KDP publisher get all these names-- the NYC phone directory?

But there is a third version of this series with a similar title by a third fake author, "David D.Lilly" and his ripoff recipes are not the same but they are still off food.com as well as his cropped pictures.  His cover picture is also different so does that make him a more original ripoff thief or is that terminology too oxymoronic for consideration.

I recently try to read The Other Side by Cynthia D. Bates. Imagine my surprise when I realized that I was reading a book that I've already read. It was the exact same book by Sindee Lynn's Unexpected Packages published in 2011. Cynthia D. Bates plagiarized Unexpected Packages word for word. Ms. Bates ought to be ashamed of herself.  I liked her previous book Love On The Riviera,  so why go ahead and plagiarized someone else's hard work.  I felt ripped off, cheated and insulted. She copied everything word for word, only I suppose changing the characters name thinking we'll be stupid enough not to notice  that she's a plagiarist.  Just absolutely SHAMEFUL!!!!

The book was poorly written, appearing to be text taken from various on-line raspberry pi postings. Every chapter contained almost the exact same, duplicated word for word instructions with just the name of the program changed. Save your money. You can get the same content from YouTube for free, and in more depth.
