Book review - Belmar Surfer - NJ, USA
Arrived in perfect order and in the condition I expected it too. I would purchase again from this seller as it was on time!
A great deal considering the book store was WAY overpriced, so that purchase there was not going to happen. A good deal and perfect delivery!
No shipment; No Customer Service = Bad Review - DARREN MURPHY - GAINESVILLE, FLORIDA United States
Paid for a "2-Day" delivery shipment (a required college course book) that never arrived. Called their customer service (after waiting for 3 days) only to be told to be patient. What about reimbursing me for the shipping and handling cost?
Very frustrated!
Like I said in my title: No shipment; No Customer Service = Bad Review
Filled with errors and sloppiness. - BC - Texas
This book covers much of the essential GIS skills. The book's usefulness is nullified by a large number of errors and general sloppiness. If you are checking your answers (which are in the back of the book), take any answers with a grain of salt. In general, a succession of factual errors (such as miscalculating the number of feet in a mile), layout errors (diagrams not remotely close to where they are listed) and vague wording made me wonder if the book had been copy edited. I would strongly recommend the ESRI website and other ESRI publications over this book.
Arc GIS - Anthony J. Ledonne -
The book was brand new and still had CD...and still was in wrapping. So it was good. It arrived promptly as well.
