2007 Edition significantly improved
All the other reviews for this book are for the previous edition. I'm very happy with this updated Taiwan 7th edition which came out a month ago. The two writers live in Taiwan and have added an extra focus and assembled detailed information on a range of Taiwan's attractions like hot springs, mountaineering, river rafting as well as the more well-known things like eating out, temples, museums ...

Good list of cheap eateries
The value in "Lonely Planet Amsterdam" is in the thumbnail sketches of cafes and reasonably-priced restaurants. The descriptions of the establishments that I am familiar with were right on the money. They are grouped by neighborhood and have basic information, such as opening hours. I was disappointed that Indonesian restaurants were short-changed, because they "aren't authentically Asian." True, ...

thoughtful, infectious, and mind-expanding
SlipString Drive is a highly readable book which offers both a theoretical refinement of M-theory and an important practical application with dramatic implications for the future of intelligent life in the universe. Along the way, Bender takes the reader on a tour of the sexiest topics of modern physics: the early universe, the large-scale distribution of matter, black hole physics, quantum ...

A good guide for traveling on-your-own.
The 8th edition is 150 pages less than the 7th. What did they cut out? Hokkaido, Tohoku, and hotels seem to be trimmed in a lot of areas. For example, Kushiro got cut to a bare mention and Onuma National Park north of Hakodate no longer made the list. If you want to see the Ainu Museum in Shiraoi, it's still in there but you're going to have to stumble across it in a box listed under "Ainu ...

If you want ONE guide to the Cape, this is it!
I spotted this Lonely Planet guide for the Cape at the library. Using it during a long weekend at the Cape made me realize I needed to own it. It contains a wealth of useful, interesting information about what to see and do--and every restaurant evaluation from it was accurate. This guidebook is worth every penny for a family or a couple traveling alone.

Lonely Planet Korea
This book was a very comprehensive and honest guide to the country. It also included a section on North Korea and the possibility of travelling there. I found the information useful in order to decide where to go and the cost of living in Korea.

The Definitive Trave Guide on Norway (4 1/2 Stars)
Deanna Swaney (along with and Mark Griffith's outstanding mapping and design) have produced the definitive travel guide on Norway. Deanna Swaney's writing is both engaging and descriptive. In my "must have" list, to qualify a guide as "excellent", are easy to read maps. This book has the best maps found in any Norway travel guide. The superb information and recommendations are reliable and though ...

When equipped with this book, Germany is like your neighborhood.
This book contains 99.9% you need to travel in Germany and it also tells you where to find the last 0.1%. You cannot leave for Germany without it. Especially, you are the first time be there.

boring, but incredibly useful
When we were planning our trip to Japan, we purchased The Rough Guide to Japan and The Lonely Planet Guide to Tokyo. Reading through the Lonely Planet Guide, I found very little that sounded worth doing or seeing. The same items described in The Rough Guide were much more intriguing. So I chose what to see and do based on The Rough Guide. Close to the time of our trip, someone who had just ...

About the reviews
Hey, I bought this book and liked it...and I'm a native New Englander. The coverage for Maine is particularly good, or at least I thought so. However, I'm posting this not so much to let y'all know that the guide is good, but to say that this book is in it's third edition, published in 2001. All of the reviews here date from 2000 and before. They apply to the second edition of the book, not the ...

An authoritative review, and a very precious Compendium.
Personality traits, styles, and disorders are a very complex domain in the Behavioral Sciences. Personality Disorders are currently still catalogued as Axis II disorders in the DSM-IV-TR (APA, 2000). Soon we will be blessed by the 5th edition of the DSM. Personality disorders are planned to be one of the hottest topic in the new edition. Diagnoses will change. Criteria will be added (and ...

Vestpocket Tokyo
"Tokyo - Citiescape" from Lonely Planet is a coffee-table book scaled to fit a vest pocket. Each of the forty or so color photographs, the kind that you wish you had the talent to have taken, targets a single aspect of the city's people, culture, or places and is accompanied by text that is appreciative and insightful. My main complaints are that the text is printed in black against blue or ...

`I was impressed with the accessibility of the book, offering a guided tour through the history, context and purposes of reminiscence therapy, the range of applications from promoting social and emotional stimulation to reminiscence as psychotherapy. It also provides a brief overview of its theoretical underpinnings... As a book for health professionals interested in reminiscence work, it is a must for the shelf... most importantly it emphasizes ...

Tell me something I don't know...
I have used Lonely Planet guide books in many countries and find them to be the superior guide book for all destinations... in the third world. Lonely Planet falls short in Europe and this book, Lonely Planet Denmark, is no exception. This book reads like a Let's Go travel guide; one doesn't need a guide book to find pizza and kebab shops anywhere in the world, especially in Denmark where they ...
