Decent information,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Summer Jobs Abroad 2005 (Summer Jobs Worldwide) (Paperback)
The information contained in here is not bad, although I wouldn't go so far as to call it good. It reads like the yellow pages with a very bland tone, and it does not include personal experience. If you are looking for a just a directory, then this might be for you.
