Being a Y2K project director, I have talked to numerous people and poured through massive amounts of written material. I found "Y2K Survival Handbook for the Urban Family" to be well written and easy to read and understand. This book also provides "Down to Earth" advise for preparing for Year 2000, without going to extremes. It is important for all of us to prepare for Y2K just as if we were preparing for a hurricane, tornado, flood, ice storm or any other natural disaster. This book provides a good roadmap for making these kinds of preparations. I would recommend this book to anybody looking for a good, common sense guide to Y2K readiness.

This book provides a broad range of information and guidance in how we can personally deal with the Y2K "problem" when it affects each of our lives. The matrix of risks and the checklists are particularly useful for all kinds of disaster planning. This is an excellent guide to practical solutions in the protection of you and your family for the year 2000 and beyond.

This book is one of the best guides I have read for practical advice on how to prepare your home for a likely disaster as we approach the year 2000.

The authors don't waste pages and pages giving gloom and doom scenarios to convince you to buy the book. Each chapter quickly gets to the point of detailing the things you need to think about and do to prepare. The last 30 pages alone are worth the price of the book - list after list of things to do and goods to stockpile. Even if you are not worried about Y2K problems this book is an excellent manual to prepare for any natural disaster you can think of. If you live in an area that gets hit by storms, floods, snow, earthquakes, whatever then you NEED to BUY THIS BOOK!
