3.0 out of 5 stars A little too basic, November 3, 2006
By J. S. Burke (Evansville, IN United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
ACT 2006 is a great book if you are new to ACT and have an IT department to handle the techie stuff.

It's well written. It just didn't go into near enough detail for me.
