This is one of two books I carry in my toolbag (the other is Sequoia Press Pocket PCRef 13th ed.). It is small enough to be portable yet has enough information to be useful in most situations. It is not really for newcomers to PC repair, as it has too little space to thoroughly cover theory behind the work -- but that is proper for such a 'field guide'. Get one of the large hardbound editions of Mueller's books for home reference, but carry this one with you day-to-day. The only complaint I have is that I wish there were a newer version with more up-to-date info on newer PCs. (The Sequoia Press book fills this need.)
