Summary: For Beginners
Comment: First of all, if you visit Internet game sites often, don't buy it. You'll find more here for free than in the book. However, if you can't be online much, read on.

This book is for beginners and intermediate players still finding their way around. It contains nothing that isn't in the manual but the layout is more logical (the tables are in the subject areas and not the appendix) and the prose is more accessible. Although there are no real secrets or brilliant strategies in it, the tips are helpful. In short, if you want a nice quick reference, get it. Otherwise, save your money.

Rating: 3
Summary: Good Information
Comment: Gives you a lot of information in tables and charts. Well orgainzed and easy to reference. Has some helpful hints and clues to make the game easier to learn. It is NOT going to help you WIN. You have to think and reason on your own to accomplish this on your own ability. Use the brain GOD gave you and say thanks. Great Game and Great Information Book.

Summary: Expanded Instruction Manual - Little Strategy
Comment: I bought this manual hoping to quickly get up to speed with the new game. I knew enough to play at the more basic levels but wanted tips on how to improve my playing level. What I found in this book was a nicely complete instruction manual, and very little in the way of strategies, tips, etc.

While I did read the book cover to cover and learned a few rules and features that I was unaware of beforehand, it did little to improve my level of play. This is a very complex game, and knowing a few basic tips/tricks can be immensely helpful. Most of the tricks I've learned came from extensive playing (it's easy to get [pulled] into this game) and message boards online - Yahoo groups, civfanatics, etc.

If you have money to burn and want a comprehensive instruction manual buy this book. If you are looking to improve your level of play, you won't find it here.
