I bought the book a little over a year ago. I would say it's excellent for beginning astronomers and still has something for those a little more advanced. There's certainly more in it for dob (or at least newt) owners than anyone else but a majority of the tips are equally applicable to all 'scope operators.
Many of the pieces of advice you will find written somewhere in these forums but it's nice to have it all in one place. Also some of the tips are for questions you wouldn't even think of asking.
If I could only keep one of my astro books then this would probably be it.
