Summary: Educational & Fun for any Graduate- I should know, I am one!
Comment: I was actually a little dissapointed when I saw this after opening the package in the mail. I was expecting something a little less "words of advice for the next phase of your life" sort of thing. The book just sat there in my room for about a week until one night I was bored so I picked it up and started flipping through it. That was the first sign of something cool-you can flip through it, it doesn't matter where you start or what you skip. And it's a different format, it's a test, but a fun one (if you can imagine such a thing). The book tells you so many of those important little things that you might have missed somehow along the way on everything from changing a flat, making a bed, diversity, to figuring out the percent of alcohol in a margarita. This book ended up being a really cool and helpful graduation gift. I highly recommend it!

Summary: I smell a rat
Comment: Not worth the cost of shipping it back. Loaded with errors and misinformation. Mr Moyer's concept of the "Real-world" comes accross as one which encourages shallow thinking and narrow-mindedness.

Rating: 3
Summary: doesn't want to be corrected
Comment: I dived into the middle of this book and found it great fun. I also found a few wrong answers. I got really turned off when I read the introduction, in which the author makes it clear that he does not want to hear about any errors in his book.
I think someone writing a book on how to get along in life should be aware of the importance of willing to correct errors made and should be grateful to have mistakes pointed out to him.
After reading that introduction, I got turned off by the book.
