It is a recommendable book if you want to learn about climbing, lots of pictures that show precisely how to proceed. The best book I found so far.
 If you climb you need this book! March 9, 2005

Matt Burbach (a.k.a. M@ at Urban Climber Magazine) continues to impress with this instructive and comprehensive book on gym climbing. The photos and descriptions of everything from technique to learning how to lead are really useful for someone like me who is beginning to climb hard routes more consistently. I don't climb outdoors very often, so the other books discussing climbing on "real" rock don't really give me the information I need to improve at my local rock gym. Burbach's book is different. It is specifically geared toward "urban climbers" like myself who climb in gyms and want to improve. I recommend this book to people wanting to maximize their indoor experience.
