Book Reviews of Living and Working in Australia, 4th Edition: A Survival Handbook (Living and Working)

Book Review: Nothing you can't find on Google...
Summary: 1 Stars

I bought this book based on the fact that it was only just published in June 2007, yet some of the information is wrong/out of date (for example it states you can only work for one employer for 3 months. This was changed in 2006 to be 6 months).

This book contains very little information that you can't easily find on Google for free.

If you've never been to Australia and are considering emmigrating, then this might be useful. If you've been before on holiday or know how to use a PC (yep, you're using one now to read this review), then everything in this book can easily be found on the Internet for free.

The author doesn't even live in Australia - he resides in Switzerland !!
