Excellent resource about the subject of GIS
I got this book to help study for the GISP. It is an excellent resource for all things GIS and takes you through pretty much everything related to the subject. Lots of great examples and illustrations. I keep it at work now as a reference.

High Quality Information
I lived that this helped my friend Jean exactly what they needed to to access their class. This book was bound nicely. There weren't any grammatical it spelling errors found. The price was good as well. This is a great text book.

it was a little too advanced for a beginner like me so I ended up returning it
Book is very thorough. However, it was a little too advanced for a beginner like me so I ended up returning it. It reads more like a college textbook.

But it's a great companion to the course
I bought this for the first class of a graduate program I am taking. It's very much a textbook, which means it very thorough. But it's a great companion to the course.

Big Book
A lot of great material, but feels a little outdated. Got it for an intro GIS class and never opened it and still did well.
