Complete Plumbing - By: Ian T Verdon, 06 Feb 2006 
Well laid out book if you livein the USA. All measurementsin imperial which have no value here now. Also most of the projects were laid out for American homes & informing unskilled people how to fix gas appliances should not be encouraged. Unfortunately I will have to return this book.
Caveat emptor - By: , 29 Dec 2004 
My fault. I should have read the other reviews before ordering. I too didn't notice the book was for the American market. I am now almost brainwashed into thinkingin metric.(with difficulty!) I would just love to have the equivalent of Lowes Building Storein the UK, you can walk out with a virtual house & load itin the truck. Butin the UK we are stuck with metric & B & Q which doesn't even come close. So sorry, I'll have to return this excellent book.
Great Book - if you live in the USA - By: William Cummings, 18 Oct 2004 
This book contains everythingin the Synopsis - there are great instructions, lots of helpful photos etc. It also has a refreshing non-sexist approach, with lots of photos of lady plumbers.
It's not obvious from the way it's listed, but it's publishedin the USA & intended for the American market. The extent to which any of the procedures etc. are compatible with UK building regulations is undefined
