Shop around
Over paid, shopper's remorse came quickly when I pealed off the sticker covering the UPC code and MSRP of less than $13. Ugh. Content was what I was looking for, but not at this price... I feel dupped.

A Bit Disappointing
I have recently decided to equip my front and back gardens with drip irrigation, and was seeking some high-quality advice on the use of different types of emitters and sprinklers, as well as some saavy tips on setting up a system. What I got was a minimal discussion of the most basic aspects of drip irrigation. More space was spent on sprinkler systems (I should have guessed from the title). There was really nothing in here that I could not easily figure out myself. It could be useful to someone who is absolutely clueless about drip irrigation. I have said it before, and I find myself saying it again: Sunset Books have gone downhill. The new editions of their books are redone with scads of garden photographs. Gone are the highly instructional illustrations that used to characterize their books. If I can get previous editions of their books, I will do that. Unfortunately, drip technology is so recent that there really is no previous book by Sunset that covers it. I doubt if I will ever order a Sunset book online again, but only from a store where I can look through it beforehand.
