Better than nothing....
Ok, I agree with the other reviews that this book is very incomplete and shallow. If you have not learned many of the civi topics than this book is not for you. It will not teach you how to solve civil problems. I am still in school and this book was just what I needed to gain a basic review of already familiar civil topics. Also, I would never buy this book unless it was 10 dollars or less. I found someone to borrow it from. The book is thin! You can get all the way through it in a few hours!

Helped me passed my EIT, 1st time!
It is the closes thing to the civil afternoon session of the EIT, other than the NCEES one.
This is not a review book at all, but a collection of problems from the different topics covered under the civil examination. If you are interested in solving problems and being able to see the solution line by line, then I would recommend this book. However, for anyone who really needs to review the civil material, do not purchase this. For what it offers, this book is also overpriced at approximately $40.

Small and needs more
This book has fewer examples than actually needed, some solutions should have more explanation, you need to use the NCEES handbook along with it to understand the solutions, I do not know why the Author did not specify references and manuals needed to accompany the study of this book.

This book help me to make a good decision
I give four stars to this book, because it help me to decide NOT to take the civil specific FE part. The book is not a review guide, it is a book of sample problems. Therefore DO NOT expect to have explanations about the Civil FE subjects on it.
If you do not remember much about your civil engineer courses, it is better to invest time studying from the general FE book sold by the same publisher, and to take the afternoon general FE exam.
