Title: It Sucks and No Egyptologist Would Dare Be Seen Using It
Review: I'm no Egyptologist, but I've lived in Egypt and studied many languages, including Egyptian. This book sucks on so many levels. The author himself admits that it's not really for people who are that serious about learning to read Egyptian. It's got that orientalist zeitgeist feel to it. Gardiner's Middle Egyptian is a much better book to buy. This one is just a bunch of commentary and squiggles. I hate the fact that most libraries would buy it before buying Gardiner's book.
