Summary: Adequate for passing the written; not very useful beyond it.
Comment: The commercial test is particularly difficult because it's an amalgam of things leftover from the private and instrument tests. Not only is it a longer test (100 questions) but it covers a broader range of issues in the "for hire" category. For example, you can expect questions on everything ranging from currency for glider towing to the three definitions of "night" to positional awareness. And just to make sure you haven't forgotten your instrument training, there are a few approach questions thrown into the mix.

Although the FAA publishes all of the questions for the multiple-choice written tests, they do not provide the correct answer. This is where the "Commercial Pilot Knowledge Test Guide" comes in.

It attempts to collect questions by logical knowledge category, present a summary of the information you'll need to know, then list all of the questions and their answers.

Thus, it's useful for going over the material and "cramming" for the written test -- as most people do -- but it's no substitute for a good ground schooling.

In reviewing the text, I found several errors which the publisher attributed to the FAA changing its tests. Unfortunately, the publisher didn't offer any form of addendum.

Summary: it's adequate for passing the written, but it's not useful beyond that.
