Why don't you just go to a store, pick up the book, read some of it, and put it back? From what I've heard about this book, and what I know about Prima guides in general, 5 minutes should be enough to get all the useful information.
Wal-Mart has theirs in freaking cases.
High crime rate at your Wal-mart? They are just laying around in a rack at mine.
They're in a case at my nearest one, too. XD They even insist on carrying it to the register for you. That's some important $15 there, apparently. >.>
Yeah, it's the same way at my Wal-mart. Target isn't quite as paranoid, but their version is shrink wrapped so as to prevent someone from actually (God forbid) perusing the book before reading it.

To peruse means to read thoroughly. One does not peruse a book while in the store.
But anyway, I thought books were usually shrink-wrapped because of sexually explicit content. What the the hell do they think there's in this guide? :P

I intended to say thank you very much for correcting this common misunderstanding. But rather than trust you outright, I looked it up.
peruse
1 a: to examine or consider with attention and in detail : study
b: to look over or through in a casual or cursory manner
2: read ; especially : to read over in an attentive or leisurely manner
EDIT: I can't get my head out of dictionaries.
dictionary.com suckz. 1.to read through with thoroughness or care. 2.to read. 3.to survey or examine in detail.
dictionary.cambridge.org -- to read through something, especially in order to find the part you are interested in:
It seems to be about 50/50 on thoroughness. :o What a stupid word.
I now figure I have to poke you for erroneously correcting someone.
So, get poked, tard.

The shrink wrap is also there to protect the book in some cases. Player's guides suffer a lot of damage in store by people who really just do not give a shit.
