Customer ReviewsRating: 4 out of 5 Good Reference This book helped me alot. It seems to think of every degree possible and let you know which programs are accredited and what to stay away from. Gives you the schools and what they offer. Also help with financial aid. Rating: 1 out of 5 Disappointing Book Hardly a "top-notch" directory, this book is disappointing in so many ways. It's an obvious attempt to cash in on a popular topic. The information only vaguely represents what is available in distance learning today. Much of the book seems to be a "cut and paste" exercise on the few schools the authors (who obviously were sleeping at their desks during that Research 101 class) want to endorse or feel they have to include for no particular reason. Many important ground breaking schools like Excelsior College and Charter Oak are completely ignored. The authors might also be interested to know about some recent innovations in books like a "table of contents" and an "index." Readers seem to find these helpful. My personal recommendation is Bears' Guide to Earning Degrees by Distance Learning by John Bear. It's been continually revised for the last 25 years and is a comprehensive guide to distance education. I expect to see this one in the outside bargain bin for 25 cents real soon!
