Summary: All you need for a Tech license
Comment: My wife and I both used this book to study for the Technician class exam... and we both passed. My wife is not particularly technically oriented, and was able to grasp the topics presented in the book without any trouble. If you are interested in joining the ham radio ranks to communicate with people around the world, to experiment with radio equipment, or just to chat with local hams, this book will get you started. It explains all the questions in the Technician question pool, and contains a list of all the questions you need to know as well as the answers. Everything you need to know to get started is inside.

Summary: Easy to read
Comment: Now're you're talking is a great introduction to ham radio. After reading it for a few weeks I felt I was so ready that I tried to tackle Morse code before getting hold of a VE. Passed both the element 1 and 2 with outstanding scores.
Granted, the book has some parts (such as the antenna section) that are useful to the beginner but not present on the test. I skipped these parts and read them later.
The book explains the information clearly. Some memorization is required of the frequency limits for each band, but that is easy if you practice.
Overall, this was a great first book to get me started in ham radio. I've tried to read many other technical books, but this is one of the only one's I've actually finished front-to-back.
By the way, I'm 13 years old. :)

Summary: Great Book But Superseded
Comment: This book attempt to teach the reader how to pass the Technician Class amateur radio exam. As part of keeping amateur licenses up-to-date, the material and associated questions for each of the three amateur license classes change every three years. The most recent change to the technician class question pool went into effect for all testing after July 1, 2003. For those who wish to use this book to pass the technician amateur license exam, suggest getting the fifth edition (ISBN: 0-87259-881-0).
