I haven't been using this to study but just did a "look inside" on Amazon and it seems to be pretty comprehensive. To those that have this book, do you use it a lot? I know it is not that expensive I just don't want to overload myself with a lot of the same information in a bunch of different books. This one just seems to be to the point with pertinent information. Thanks for the help!

 
When I was working in the electrical field (residental electrical apprentice in HS), I kept it in my pocket all the time and used it regularly.

The EE's in my office usually have one or two copies in their library for reference. Most believe its very good to have around; just in case. From what I understand, they'll use it fairly regularly as a quick reference instead of digging out the thicker books with the information in it.

 
I really liked it for summarizing little stuff, like allowable ampacities per the NEC, allowable number of conductors in a conduit, that sort of thing. It made those sorts of things a lot quicker at figuring out rather than messing with digging out the whole NEC.
