Rating: - Comprehensive,but poorly edited / rushed
The first edition of this book covers a great deal of subject matter & helped me to catch a couple of 'gotchas' that I otherwise would have missed on the test. However, its poorly edited, non-cohesive, & misleading writing is almost unacceptable considering its purpose is to teach a technical & precise subject. The fact that it has 7 contributing authors comes through in the way it feels as though paragraphs from seperate books were pasted together. Despite 14 editors the number of errors ... Read More
Rating: - A two thumbs up book!!!
I ordered this book right after failing the OS part of the A+ test, in spite that I already had planned it, boo. I like this much very much because the chapters are quite short, about 15 to 20 pages each, something that help me keep focus on the subject. It comes with several questions at the beginning and at the end of each chapter, labs and scenarios.

Rating: - First Chapter has mistakes.

Rating: - Excelent book
I think that the A+ bible is good for people without expertice on the computer field or with knoledge about computers, i have 4 certifications and have taken many courses of computers and i find these book, well presented, well writen, and especially with a 100% coverage of the exam .
Good luck, always buy two books for a cert. thats my advice.
Rating: - Worth the Money
I bought this book, along with the A+ Passport by Mike Meyers and passed both tests with no problem. With any cert test real world experience helps but with these two books, even a complete newbe could pass. The test software with the book was pretty solid, I've seen worse.
