Customer Reviews

Good info, nice style

This is quick reading, and time well spent. Until I read "Your Year 2000 Survival Guide" by Jackie Kessler I hadn't thought too much about how electrical outages and food supply chain glitches would impact my family in Arizona. I knew home heating wasn't an issue but I didn't think about a freezer full of food spoiling in our warm climate. Now I am getting my home prepared for any emergency from an earthquake to Y2K with non-perishable food, adequate water, safe lanterns and a reasonable supply of pet food for my pets (probably pet food will be shipped last if there are fuel shortages). I also think her advice about getting hard copies of important documents and keeping a second set out of the house just plain common sense. I appreciate the checklists, timelines and exercises.

A common sense survival guide, if everything shuts down.

It will not hurt to be prepared for the possible shut down of everything electronic as the clock turns to y2k. I found this book to be a very good source as a common sense survival guide.

The best Y2K personal planning guide on the market.

As author of Managing 00 and Countdown Y2K (Wiley) I have been asked to look at many books dealing with the personal planning issues. This is the most realistic and practical guide I've seen. Not only does it provide common sense information, but it does it in a way that does not promote panic. I will keep this book as a practical guide to emergency preparadness. The information is timeless and can be used long after the Y2K crisis comes and goes. The author uses a style which is informative and easy to read. A real joy for someone who scours the media for practical information. Richard Bergeon - NueVue International LLC

Down to earth advice. Serious subject, but a fun read!

I sure wouldn't mind hunkering down with this author during the first few months of the Year 2000. With Dr. Kessler, it sounds like fun! Those of us looking for a sane and sensible approach to the issue will find just that in Dr. Kessler's book. But who would think that reading about such a serious subject could be so much fun?

Everything you need to know to survive the millenium change

What will happen if the computer gurus don't fix all those Y2K computer bugs? Will your credit card work? Will you have enough heat? Will your phone work? Dr. Kessler explains all in this much needed book for the millenium.
