5 out of 5 stars Handy Book   April 29, 2008

I find this book very handy, has most commonly used tables from NEC 08. The pages are very heavy laminate, not paper like the Ugly's. Also has other useful information like master bundle sizes of EMT and PVC. I would recommend this reference to a foreman or a journeyman looking for a small quick reference guide.

I love this little book. I have shown it to friends who use the "other book" and they love it too.


4 out of 5 stars Not Ugly's, and better because of it   July 25, 2008

I have the 2007 version also. I like the yellow colors in this, its harder on the eyes but easier to read in low light. It isnt a silly quiz book like the useless Ugly's book. I've already had basic electronics and math, I want a quick ref for code, CAT-5 wiring, and motor hookups,. I dont want a fill-in-the-blank quiz section as 25% of Ugly's book is.

Also, this POCKET book FITS IN YOUR POCKET. I cant even fit an Ugly's in my back pocket unless I went up 3 sizes from a 34" waist

1 out of 5 stars Buy an "Ugly" Book~!   April 2, 2008

Sorry, but this is a waste of $10dollars....
You are best served by buying the "Ugly" Book for Electricians instead (this tries to be like the Ugly)
The Author (Mark Shapiro)is best known for his NEC Code for Electricians Video Sets...he should not have tried to write a book on the subject~!
