International Edition (Asian) Still Fits the Bill!
It is the international edition (the original picture didn't depict that but when I went further through the purchase process I did note it so it wasn't unexpected if it did in fact come in the international; (Asian) edition. The book is in English so no worries about that. It's a quick and condensed guide of the big Bates book and it has all the pertinent details needed for PE's. Someone noted on another site that the pocket guide has mistakes but if it's pictures you are after with instruction, I believe that is all reported as being fine. The pocket guide will be worth it's weight in gold when I go for check-offs in the event I forget anything. Took about about ten days to get to me. Condition was perfect.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Save some money with the international edition of Bates' Pocket Guide
Save some money by getting this foreign (non U.S.) edition of the book. Print quality seems OK and don't know of any difference in the content.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
