5.0 out of 5 stars Reel In A Winner, July 21, 2007

By	Smile of Reason (Covington, LA USA) - See all my reviews

This book is a winner. The student editors are Julio Machado and Mike Yank. They have done their homwwork. They understand that their readers will be undergraduates, not their parents. They have identified the issues facing those undergraduates and offered solutions. Their solutions are based on the experience of older students that they have interviewed. The layout is uncluttered and the text is easy to read. Well worth the modest cover price.
