3.0 out of 5 stars seriously out of date, 4 Sep 2005
By simon gurney - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
the rough guide to the philippines in keeping with recent rough guides is very easy on the eye, well laid out with stunning photography, but the content is seriously dated.
although very strong for overall planning and an overview, the details for each location are weak.
the diving guide n particuliar is very strong, and alows the diver to approach the diving in the philippines from differnet angles, the box out guide to each location is particuliarly useful running through the different dive sites, but again is dated as many entrys detail common encounters with hammerheads, mantas and so on whereas in reality it has been many years since these pelagics have been seen. alhough this is also a good indication of how quickly the sea is being decimated in the area.
as usual the sections on food and language although small are useful and well compiled.
although good for reference this version is too dated to rely on for a trip to the philippines.
