Title: A nice picture book with little serious content
Review: Writing a good book about power tools is not easy - the market for these tools is changing too fast. Moreover, for obvious commercial and legal reasons it is impossible to make any quality or value judgements in print. So what can an author (who admits to be a "power tool junkie") do when writing a 260 peage book on power tools? Well, our author took the easy way out of the dilemma: Load the book with beautiful pictures of new and old tools and supplement that picture album with some basic and superficial text. The end result is a beautiful sales brochure incorporating all brands not just most popular ones. If you wish to get a brief description of what the market has to offer in power tools, then this is the book for you. If you wish to learn more and seek the answer to questions like how are power tools constructed internally, how to distinguish their quality and durability and how to use these tools efficiently, then this is not a book for you.
