Great followup to the Gold Edtion. 14 Nov 2002
By Michael J Woznicki - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Russell Dean Vines and Ronald Krutz have yet another first rate manual; for the CISSP exam. The authors have gone the extra mile to produced a book that an additional studsy guide companion to their already successful CISSP Study Guide.

This is not an addendum to the first book but rather a cut to bone manual that focuses on the exam objectives. While it may appear that the small manual is nothing more than questions and answers, after reading the text I found it provided more than just bullet points.

There is over 200 questions with detailed explanations to work with as well as a cd-rom, using the highly successful, Boson testing engine with an additional set of practice questions. Used as a final preparation tool or as a supplement to The CISSP Prep Guide, either way you have a great study tool.

Adds what the original CISSP Prep Guide lacked 5 Nov 2002
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Advanced Q&A is exactly what was needed as a companion to the CISSP Prep Guide. The questions in the original Prep Guide seemed too easy, and these are definitely not easy! It has been suggested to read the Prep Guide and answer the All-in-One questions, but now with the CD included, that's not necessary; Advanced Q&A is a complete study solution.

Lots of paper 17 Mar 2003
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
It's good to get study questions from an authority. Since this review is pre-CISSP test I can't speak to the value of those questions. I'm certain they'll be right on target though.

I liked the book very much. I liked that newer information is included like wireless networking HIPAA and other topics.

I think the book is about 100 pages too thick. One can literally rip out the first 99 pages and not loose any content. The first 99 pages are all the questions. The rest of the book are the questions repeated again along with the answers. I couldn't help but think someone went out of their way to create a bigger book knowing that all the information could've been covered in fewer pages.

Since the original CISSP Study Guide is also formatted this way I guess it's okay, but it still wastes a lot of paper IMHO and more than likely adds to the cost of the book.

Call it a pet peave I guess. Other than that, a great book and highly recommended.
