Is it suitable for low level players?

Looks like it's well worth the $ (used), from looking over the reviews and comments here. I'd buy it, IF I didn't aleady own a few dozen other unread chess books.

Someone at amazon is selling a new one for $200.00 - WTF?? This strikes me as so bizarre I just had to throw it in. 

yep, is suitable for all level. Is a very general infomation type.

Thanks all.

I don't know, but the actual book I ordered is $7.95.

Here is a review of it and for $8 that is cheap.

 Comprehensive, up to date, and clear, this invaluable guide will help even less experienced players to progress to good club level and better. It offers a complete guide to the main opening gambits along with hundreds of test positions for players at every level. Graham Burgess, FIDE Master, shows you all you need to know, from entering the world of chess, through Internet games, to major international tournaments. Features include:Entirely new and expanded sections on online chess, computers and openings.A complete guide to all the main opening gambits.Hundreds of test positions for players of all standards.Courses in tactics and attacking strategy.Analysis of some of the greatest games ever played.Information and advice on club, national, and international tournaments.Glossary of terminology.Practical advice and information for further study.

What I sent for is CHESS: Tactics and Strategy. Published in paperback as The Mammoth book of Chess.

Yeah, I've read it. I have it on my Kindle.

Ryan, (or anyone else with it on a Kindle) Is this book easy to read and follow along with on the Kindle?  I have the older keyboard Kindle, not the fancy color touchscreen one. 

I have the very first Kindle, without the keyboard, and it is very easy to follow. Very detailed, and very good for the beginner/ learner. That book is where I learnt a bunch of my tactics from. If you would like, I can set up a series of unrated games, and "coach" you.

Thanks for the info, I appreciate it.  Thank you also for the coaching offer, though I'll pass.  I have too many games now, and that's not what I'm looking for quite yet. 

Okay, if you ever need anything, just ask! :)
