Book Reviews of Aviation and the Role of Government
Book Review: History is good, typos are bad
Summary: 2 Stars
I recently had to use this book for a class on basic legislation relating to the aviation community. The history about the creation of the American aviation industry and regulation is interesting. On a whole the author doesn't dive too deep into it all, rather touches on major points in the history as needed for this basic introduction. The largest let down though is the self-check modules that are provided with the CD-ROM. There are numerous typos in both the book and supplied modules. It lead to confusion with a number of students on my class, because while trying to answer some of the modules the book had a different spelling or didn't even mention a subject that was being asked in the module.
