There are more errors in this book than there are pages(maybe not literally but pretty freakin close). Explanations and definitions are poor at best. It's not that the material is that complex, it's just that this author does a crap job of putting it all in layman's terms. For example, "Magnetic declination is the horizontal angle observed from the geodetic meridian to the magnetic meridian." It could have just as well been said that magnetic declination is the difference between true north and magnetic north(direction compass points).
Diagrams are essentially useless. They usually accompany simple topics, whereas there will be nothing for more challenging topics.
Also, only about 1 out of every 6 (partial)answers are given in the back of the book. It is just incredible. I cannot even check my work to see if I am doing the problem correctly.
I am truly frustrated with this textbook, and I highly recommend saving your money(unless of course, like me, you are forced to use it for a class). ANYTHING would be better than this, including just referencing the internet.

I teach a surveying class at our local college. This edition is no better than the last one as it is full of mistakes. It contains mistakes that were in the 12th edition plus some new ones. If you have a choice, do not bother with this book.
Update: as the term goes on, I and the students find more and more mistakes. For the price of this book it should have been edited better. I would not recommend this book whatsoever.
