4.0 out of 5 stars A very readable study guide, but..., 15 Aug 2006
By JRR "JRR" (United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
I found this book very easy going, and read it in 3 days. I enjoyed reading it, and expect I'll refer to back to it in future. Was it worth the money? Yes. I passed the exam, and this book definitely played a part in that.

The book does not cover every topic that can be found in the offical Review Manual, nor does it address the topics it does cover to the same degree. That being said, it aims not only to prepare you for the exam, but also for the actual role of an IS auditor. As such, it contains some great material outside the scope of the exam, such as a strong section on D/R best practices. Generally, where it differs from the syllabus (as in the D/R best practices), it tells you. The only exception is that the TCP/IP stack model in the book is a 5 layer model, whereas the stack in the ISACA manual is a 4 layer model with different names.

There only seem to be a couple of other errors (I didn't agree with the identified critical path diagram in the book's project management section, though I did agree with the central definition statement in the same picture, and on p.210 in fig 5.4, the box names for phases 3 and 4 seem to be the wrong way round.)

The book also contains questions in flashcard format for you to use on PCs, Pocket PCs etc, but while they are good for the early part of your study, they seem quite basic compared to the actual exam questions.

I'd recommend this book as a good supplement to the official materials, but I wouldn't recommend it as a replacement.

4.0 out of 5 stars Recomended, but would not help you pass CISA on its own., 11 Jun 2008
By D. Fernando "Dan" (United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Based on what I have realised, this book is unarguably a good source of information for those who are planning to sit for the CISA exams. However, I should note that no reading material which I have come across is able to replace the official CISA guide. For knowledge purposes and additional support for CISA think book should be ok. However, to be able to tackle all questions effectively you should be familiar with the content of the CISA guide.
I am writing the review based on my experience in answering CISA database questions,
Reading this book alone, think book plus the CISA guide.
Hope that this helps.

5.0 out of 5 stars *** Great book, highly recommended! ***, 6 Feb 2008
Based on the previous reviews of this book I used it alone and studied it several times over a period of 2 months before sitting the exam. I passed. I highly recommend it along with as many other practise exams as you can get your hands on.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good supplement to core CISA test questons
If, like me, you found the "official" CISA study guide very dry and uninteresting, I suggest you use this book alongside the official test questions. Read more
