Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I was excited to receive this book as it purportedly was going to describe the strategies and techniques of the one of the world's most elite fighting forces. The book however is a great disappointment as there are few strategies and next to no techniques that are mentioned, let alone described or explained. The book is a series of lists of hazards (i.e. - frostbite, sun stroke, dehydration, scorpions, etc) that are more completely described in other survival books. Almost no techniques are given throughout the book, and the reader is expected to feel satisfied with the most vague descriptions and glossed-over strategies that even the arm-chair adventurer will feel lost and wanting. The book was also hastily edited with lots of repetitive information, especially in the captions of the laughingly general photos that seem as though the authors spent 5 minutes on Google finding the images. I have the greatest respect for the US Navy Seals and am proud to be in a country where such elite individuals risk their lives for the greater good of our country, but this book falls short of what its title portrays is inside.
