I bought this for my fiance's birthday- it was one of the highest priority items on his wishlist. It is a big book- about the size of the average college textbook- and he read it straight from front to cover in the matter of a few weeks. He believes that it has really taught him a lot and that he has been playing better (and he was already very good) since he'd started reading it. In summary, this is a fantastic gift for the avid pool player in your life, as long as they are the type willing to sit down and do some reading.

I'm a data junkie. This book is loaded with detailed analysis of how shots work, what are the permissible errors (by degrees of angle) to make LOTS of shots, and literally a ton of information that can be assembled to clear a given rack with the best chance of success. If you have EVER had trouble choosing the best shot available, read this book. That problem just won't come up again.

I might have figured out most of the concepts in this book, but it would have taken me years.. Just the physics lessions alone brought me from a person that just hit balls into a pocket, into someone that knows where it's going and why.. It's written in a way that makes beginners understand... Just learning the concept of collision induced throw is worth the price.. This book taught me how to play..

I have a large portion of the books availabile on the subject. This is the best single text, and it is my favorite of the lot. It discusses nearly every facit of the game in no nonesense terms. You will learn in "matter of fact" terms why you miss shots, which shots have the largest margin of error, how to allow for error, and much more.
Everything from basic technique to banking and kicking systems is discussed. This book can be easily understood by the layman. Pool players can be a superstitious bunch. It's hard to get a good player to explain exactly what has to happen in order to make a shot. If you want to take the "voo-doo" out of pool and shot making, then this book is for you. I highly recommend it to all pool players.

I can't say enough about this book. I am willing to bet that there is more accurate information in this book about bank shots than there is in all the other pool books combined. The same is true for rail-shots, deflection, English, and many other aspects of pool. Like the laws of physics, the principals of pool will never change. I expect to keep this book in the family (and treat it as an heirloom) for many generations to come. Buying this book is a winning proposition.
