I'm an instructor who recommends textbooks to my students. Here is what I tell them about this book. Each chapter contains twenty questions which is typically longer than other certification books. The answers are located in the back of the book (where you can't sneak a peek during testing) and they contain the original question along with explanations. In addition, an enclosed CD contains additional testing material. I'm disappointed to see errors in the answers and typos in the text. In some topics, the subject is handled too lightly. I alert students to be ready for questions in the book that aren't covered in the preceding text (don't you just hate that?). Overall, I have to conclude that the book is a good value for the price.
