Overall, I think this book is primarily intended for anyone who has never thought about emergency preparedness, but there are still some good tidbits for those looking to build a more comprehensive preparedness plan.

I think I would have found this book much more effective if 1) Similar questions were grouped together by subject (such as Preparedness Kits, Food, Medical, Mentality, etc.) and 2) If there was any form of citation included. The author may be knowledgeable in the variety of subjects that make up survivalism, but I find it difficult (not to mention dangerous) to take medical advice, water purification steps, edible plant tests, etc. from a book that lists no additional credible sources. Since the book recommends building a resource library (chapter/secret #101), it seems like it was a missed opportunity to include the books, articles, and other resources relevant to each section that would further back up each point.
