Summary: A more detailed review...
Comment: According to one review that I've read so far, there is some truth to a certain extent. Yes, the book does not have example problems, but at the same time this book is probably not the best choice to teach an undergrad class. Timoshenko is a classic, it shows all the mathematical derivations and the theoretical fundamentals. Students usually do not appeal to that, rather they prefer something "mulched" and easy to digest. So, this is a book for more experienced students and professionals.

Summary: An extensive look at elastic stability
Comment: This book covers most of the major topics related to elastic stability in structural members. Our professor stated that this was more of a "guide book" than a text book and I do agree. There is a noticeable lack of examples which could be used to transition to valid applications. But if you are looking for theory relating to the elastic stability of most structures, this is a good place to start your search.
