More or less it covers a variety of topics and so far very good. I figured it would be another good book to add to my library "When technology does fail". Basically most of the skills and techniques that are in it you can look up on the internet, but for me and probably others it's just nice to have all that knowledge gathered into this book. Not saying EVERYTHING is covered in this one book but, I would say it's a good starting point. Rating: 4 / 5 Like the title says, I only gave it 4 stars because I have not read through it.

I believe everyone should read. The only reason I didnt give it 5 stars is its a larger book that doesnt fit easily in a backpack. Rating: 4 / 5 Super book so far… not finished with it yet.

Anybody out there willing to take on the task? Rating: 4 / 5 Very comprehensive.
