Solid, thought-provoking, sure to help... 
This book is a solid buy for anyone new to the art of interviewing. I found myself in the middle of a career change (by choice) from the military to the civilian world, so I was totally unfamiliar with most of the finer points of the interview cycle. This book was on my "to read" list in preparation for my transition, but I waited until about one week before my first interviews to read through it--and my only regret is that I did not read it earlier!
The book is clearly organized, well worded, and easy to apply to almost any interview. One word of caution--this book does seem to cater more to those interviewing for management or mid-level positions. If you do find yourself in this position, then get this book! Even if you do not read it page-by-page, simply skimming through the topics will generate tons of ideas for good questions to ask. Just be sure to make them your own, and don't use this book as a "script" for the interview.
I agree 100% with the author's assessment that the majority of the interview occurs once it is opened up to YOU for your questions! Solid buy for anyone looking to better their chances in their next management interview.
Absolutely Worth Reading
The book was full of practical and extremely useful examples. Easy to pick up and put down and digest in short bursts. Easy to focus on specific areas of concern -- not a textbook. It generated ideas and provided insight about how the interviewer thinks... well worth the investment.
Great book!! Impresses potential employers, etc. 
I read this book along with "Business Etiquette" before an internship interview and it really impressed my potential employer. Needless to say I was given the job and I am a Finance Intern. This book exemplifies to the potential employer that you take the initiative, research the company, and are really interested in working for that company. The book allows you to ask questions that give you insight into the "inside workings" of the company, etc. It is a must have for any interviewee.

"Asking the right questions can help job seekers ace the interview and land that job.The most critical question job interviewers ask is often the last one. That's when they lean forward and say, "Do you have any questions?" As author John Kador points out, that's the applicants' moment to shine, to demonstrate that they have done their homework and that they're good fit with the organization. Most of all, it provides an applicant with an opportunity to ask for the job. A powerful resource for vast and growing numbers of job seekers, this book fills readers in on the pivotal questions they need to ask to ace the interview.With chapters organized around major themes, such as "the company," "the job," and "the community," 201 Best Questions to Ask on Your Interview not only supplies readers with the right questions for virtually every context but also coaches them on the right ways to ask them."
