A bit of a disappointment. Same info online for free.

This book was a bit of a disappointment.  I bought it because it said it had "printable charts" and things to help you along your diet. The "printable chart" links don't work. They link up to a search engine.  When I opened the book on my laptop versus my iPad, I thought for sure it would open as I thought there might have been something wrong with my Kindle app. Nope, didn't work on my laptop either. Then I found out I could have easily gone to Google and find not just the same information on the book for free but a lot more helpful material (and printable too).  This book was a bit of a disappointment. I bought the 50+ Recipes companion to this book, same thing.  I'm keeping it just for the recipes but not to thrilled the "printable shopping list" & "charts" links don't work. I actually Googled "Dr Simeons HCG Diet" and got a shopping list along with a guide and an allowable foods list I can print.

This book has about the same info that you can find online.  Not impressed.  If you have already been growing citrus for a little while or a long time, there will not be any new info in here.  Why is it so hard to find a GOOD, worth your time book on Citrus and tropical plants?

If you are a first time citrus fruit grower, I would still hesitate to recommend this book.  If your a first timer go online to find info, it's cheaper haha.

I agree with what he/she said.  Ask and it is given was a wonderful book.  This one seems to just be an effort to profit more - - same information.  Disappointing.

I rated this book at three stars, and feel generous in doing so. It DOES have a lot of listings, so I guess I shouldn't be too harsh in my review, but I found it dissapointing overall. I currently live in Virginia, where it can be argued that the Native American and English languages have overlapped longer than anywhere on the continent and as might be expected there are numerous place names either derived or taken directly from the native inhabitants. Yet most of those names are not listed in this book at all, and when they are they are either misidentified geographically or unclear as to their history. On the other hand, just readig through the book as I'm inclined to do with any 'encyclopedic' work, I found myself questioning the explanations about how several English sounding names are supposedly derived from native words.

The book does seem much more useful with regard to certain geographic areas, perhaps because the 'experts' who contributed were concentrated in certain areas. And I have to admit that I have spent an hour at a time more than once just browsing through the book out of genuine curiosity, not looking up anything but instead just soaking up the information it contains. Having volunteered that experience, overall I still quite honestly feel that I wasted my money on this thick block of dead tree version, when a quick or maybe a not so quick but more in-depth web search can reveal much of, and in some cases more than, the information contained in this book.

You can get the same information off the internet for free... but if you want it all in one leaflet.. buy this... but paying what you pay for it is WAY overrated!!! Just being honest (and perhaps coming off as passive-aggressive).

Having purchased many books on the Titanic and read a lot via the web, I was excited to see this "new" book offered. Unfortunately, a lot of it pertains to the same old archives already published, making its title a bit off. I had hoped to see more photos and details of the actual wreckage but there's not much to see or read. Oh well, it is worth the bargain price but not more than that.

Perhaps I was a little hard on this book because I am an experienced online instructor, but I was a bit disappointed in the content.  The copyright is 2002, and that may be some of it as well with the ever changing technological world.  I found the basic things were included but was hoping to gain additional insight in setting up courses and teaching online.  The "essential elements" are there but pretty much bare bones.  The entire book is less than 100 pages if you don't count the appendices.  This book is probably good for the beginner with no idea where to start with an online course, but I would not recommend it for someone like me who was looking for additional insight after having some experience teaching online.

The headline sums it up.  Sure, the information is useful, but you can essentially find the same thing on a random website or blog post.  That being said, it is a super cheap book, and a quick read.

Kind of a waste of money with all of the free material available online... however, if you don't want to search for the online stuff... this book has some good ideas and content.

It's an ok read, but the title is very misleading.  You think you're going to get some "inside info" but it's really just a recap of information already published.  Nothing new here.

I am a beginner but you will find better information online. The book has a lot of experience in the art of detecting but doesn't go into any detail. Would have loved a few stories on finds and how they were discovered to get the engine running. It just didn't move me to get out there and hunt. Also very short and could have been little more comprehensive. Found it repetitive on certain subjects offering not really more insight into the subject when exploring it a second time. Lots and lots of fillers. Could have been 3 pages for what you get.

I was extremely excited to purchase this book but fairly dissappointed in  the results. True, most of this information is already online. There are  some good things: ready reference for those who don't have fast internet  access or who prefer paper to monitor. It also gives some additional  insight into the skills and what they do. Another plus is that it doesn't  give too much information away -- it doesn't spoil the stuff that should be  found out about during game play. I guess what I was looking for was a more  comprehensive decsription of game play and rules -- things like "Does  two items of 'Half Freeze' duration equal full imunity to freeze? Or does  one simply cancel out the other?" -- that type of thing.

Most of the info in available online, but the book was cheap and I didn't want to spend hours doing online research.

The information in this book can easily be found for free online. Plus the book is just an advertisement for Lucky Mojo products.

Its a helpful little book, but I expect more information or at least information I couldn't find on my own by using Google. Thats the only problem with books like this is that the information is freely available online if you choose to look for it.

Considering the guide is 300 or so pages, you'd expect more tips and hints than what you'd find online.  There's little meat to the book.  Stick with the free versions.

Nothing new here. Just the same information in a different package.
They can keep putting these books out every year. It's always the saqme info, just in a different layout.
