Poor BCM1
I regret buying this book. I was looking for some hard copy learning materials on BCM. This was a waste of money. Poorly written (very poorly) and uninformative (better stuff on the www).
I have never been negative about a book before (why would you?) but this was such a disappointment, I have to pass that on.
Buy it if you want an example about a really poor book.

Don't buy - Use BCI Good Practice Guidelines1
What a waste of money. Don't buy!

I had high expectations because this was written by John Sharp. I was very disappointed. I wanted a practical `How' route map. This book fails to deliver. It basically takes you through the content of the British Standard. Certainly doesn't tell you how to do anything. It reads like a first draft. It's badly printed as well. The text in some diagrams is all screwed up so you can't read it.

You will get more information by visiting the BCI web site and downloading their FREE `Good Practice Guidelines', which compliment BS25999.
