• Very In Depth 09 April, 2008
The book covered the material, but parts of it were confusing to me, since I have no prior electrical experience to reference. However, after reading this book and taking the practice exams, I passed.

• The Only Book You Will Need 09 May, 2008
I just passed the General test using only this book and an exam site online. Same question pool but it was just easier to read the questions online instead of flipping through the book.
Read the book cover to cover. Stop and answer the questions when prompted. Don't move on until you understand the material. Review the question pool over and over. Done.
Please don't just memorize the questions in the book and take the test. You are just hurting yourself and other Ham's who understand the hobby. But I digress...
This book covers every topic necessary to pass the test. The is the second tier of Ham license and the book does expect you to know the basics of amateur radio as well as have a good grasp of basic electronics and electronic theory. It hits heavily on radio wave propagation, electric principles, circuit components and antennas. The intent in my opinion is to really make sure you won't screw up once you start hitting HF bands and start using the higher end equipment.
Buying this for the test is a no-brainer.
The test was much harder than the Technician test but if you study and understand the material presented in the book you will pass easily.

• The Arrl General Class License Manual 02 May, 2008
Excellent manual. This edition is a significant improvement over prior editions, although I was surprised to find several typos. The manual does an excellent job preparing one for taking the amateur radio operator General Class license examination.
