I've visited Iceland quite a lot and this book is useful to highlight the main areas. I was interested to see if there was anything new or areas I have not explored in detail ( there wasn't, phew!).
Interestingly, it does not give the detail needed to thoroughly explore. However I don't think that is what this book is trying to achieve. As someone already mentioned there is a bias towards summer travel. Winter has so much to offer in my opinion.
That said it gives ample information to loosely plan a trip and then do further research to ensure you maximise your trip. The photography is good. They do mention some excellent, necessary websites.
Would I buy if I was a new traveller to Iceland? Yes I would.

I always love DK Eyewitness books but this one fell a little flat. Everything mentioned was for summertime, so since I’m going this fall I didn’t find a whole lot I’d be able to do there. There was also a lack of restaurants mentioned so that’ll be something we need to look up separately. It gave good information about cars and some driving routes that was helpful

Very informative and much more than I needed.
