[EX Q]: Waste of money . 98% of this thin book is about how many buttons a certain uniform had on it and what type of boots a certain unit wore.  Almost nothing about the Italian Army of WWII was in it.  A more appropriate title would have been "The Uniforms of the Italian Army 1940-45: Africa"
[EX A]: NEG

[EX Q]: This cannot be for real. . I am a black woman who happens to be dating a white man.  However, when I first came across this book a few years ago, I was offended and frankly, shocked that something this blatantly racist and disrespectful could have been printed under the guise of a self-help book.  Whoever the author may be, s/he must realise that the way to make a rational argument to the intended reading audience of black females is NOT to insult black men, who represent her brothers, her father or her friends.  Another review on this board took the words right out of my mouth, when it stated that historically, it has been white-not black men-who have perpetuated the myth of the black [...], and who have been heavily invested in creating a sexually degraded image of the black woman in order to justify his sexual exploitation of her.  Half of me believes [or wants to believe] that this book is actually a satire.  I hope one day to have my hopes confirmed!
[EX A]: NEG

[EX Q]: I followed this book for a couple of years . When I was a university student 14 years ago, I followed this book to the letter - 3 days in the gym every week for six months and then a split system which got me in the gym 4 days a week for another year or so.     In hindsight, it worked (as any beginner gets a little bigger anyway just by heading to the gym) but I picked up a copy of BRAWN a year later - training twice a week just focussing on the big exercises and realised far better results.      This book is good for motivation, a trip down memory lane for some; it has some good ideas but generally the routines aren't suitable for anyone training without steroids.  I wonder why Joe Weider never discussed the issue when obviously so many, if not all contributors, depended on steriods to realize their success...
