Summary: Never too well-traveled to learn new tips!
Comment: I am an experienced traveler, yet I learned many new tips from this book to make packing for travel so much easier; especially in this new era of packing light. It's filled with the basics for my less-traveled friends who ask me for advice - I just tell them "buy this book" and you're set! A big PLUS - the extensive illustrations - if you're in a hurry one picture is worth a thousand words - or a thousand miles.

Summary: Tells you what you probably already know.
Comment: I have travelled a little, and I found this book really just stated the obvious. For example, she tells the reader to find out what the weather will be like in the place he/she is visiting in order to choose the right clothes. Half way through the book I was still hoping to find some new information I could use. There are a few handy tips for space-planning and access convenience, but overall, not the resource I was hoping for.

Summary: A Great Travel Resource
Comment: "Smart Packing for Today's Traveler" is a super informative travel reference guide, especially helpful for (but not limited to) business travelers. The book has tips galore on selecting the right clothes and luggage, being prepared for any weather condition or social situation, and (very important) how to pack less and still get by. Susan Foster has a background in the sewing industry and definitely knows this topic well. Even frequent travelers can learn a few tricks from the "Customizing Your Wardrobe" section. Illustrations enable the most hard-headed readers (like this reviewer) to understand her valuable concepts.
A bonus is that "Smart Packing for Today's Traveler" is not exclusively about packing. The last 50 pages promote comfortable, healthy, and safe travel. The section describes travel insurance, useful gadgets, and information sources. "Smart Packing for Today's Traveler" is a great travel resource and I look forward to using her techniques on future trips.
