Qatar is growing a little too fast and the current edition is behind the times, in terms of structure and culture. I don't recall seeing the singing sands in the book, or the sink hole which is odd since they are two of the few permanent natural features of the place. Overall though, and for the price its not a bad starter guide and its compact so it doesn't take up much space, including the map was nice - but again I'm not sure its totally up to date. The larger visitor guide has a lot more information.
