Strengths:
Very covering and consistent - more or less everything worth knowing about avalanches is described in the book.

Weaknesses:
Not adapted for beginners. It is also technical and profound at a level that I suspect makes many people not reading the whole.

Summary:
For anyone who has basic knowledge of avalanche safety and risk assessment, and wants to slow down longer, I recommend it. There is (still) no better and more comprehensive book.

Strengths:
A modern book about avalanches. Can almost be seen as a textbook for the avalanche profession.

Weaknesses:
May be a little too advanced for ordinary skiers and it is written based on American conditions.

Summary:
Right now the best book on avalanches available on the market.
