[Brad · Rating 2 out of 5]

The number of typos and misspellings was astounding. For example, on page 123 there are two sections (Monitor and Reporting) that have identical paragraphs.

There are at least two bulleted lists in this book where the final bullet is literally “Etc.”, indicating that there is information that was withheld from the book. Is it incomplete? Unimportant? I’ll never know.

Not only was this distracting, it caused me to doubt the accuracy of the content in some places.

Nice supplemental book

The book provides a high-level clarification on most topics.
It is assumed that the reader already knows the material prior to reading this. There are some insignificant grammar errors, typos, and copy-paste issues. E-book has very low quality images - some text on them is not readable.
Overall, it is a nice book to read after you've read the official ISACA review manual or other full size book. However, if you are new to the topics, this book alone will not be sufficient to pass the exam.

The manual contains helpful, high-level information. However the typos and grammatical errors really hurt the book's credibility.
