Per the editors, this book provides runners with "everything they need to know". I don't think so. But it is a good albeit short (94 pages crowded with photos) introduction to running. Good advice on getting started, schedules, stretching, cross training, etc. but these topics are each covered in literally a few sentences. ( )
