This new book is not at all the same as the old Brooklyn Botanic Indoor Bonsai book. This one is written by and for Americans and other Westerners in a simple and straightforward style.
Some of varieties chosen are difficult to grow indoors (this is a common weakness with books on indoor bonsai), but much of the general information is very good, as is the information on the varieties that are most easily adapted to indoors.
This is altogether a very comprehensive book with a lot of userful content for the price.
