I bought it because we want to install a sprinkler system in our back yard next spring. The title of this book makes you think it will help you do this. However, when you get the chapter on underground sprinkler systems the author basically tells you not to even try it, just hire a professional because there's no way you will ever be able to understand all the intricacies involved in installing a sprinkler system. He actually has a very condescending attitude toward the reader. I was not impressed with this book...at all. If I had been able to review it before buying it I would not have purchased it.

I got more information on planning and layout from websites of system manufacturers than from this book. There is a reasonably good summary of different types and it might be OK as a guide if you're planning on hiring a professional anyway but this is not a DIY nuts and bolts kind of guide.
