Summary: University of the Bleedin' Obvious tips only
Comment: I agree with previous review - this book is useless! It contains far too much waffling on visas (when, let's face it, you are likely to know which one you need to apply for), then skims over practicalities with no useful advice. For example, important decisions like "what to take" has a paragraph which can be summarised as "What you take is quite important. Have a good think about what you want to take". Right. Thanks. More useful (and free!) are the various web forums by people who have actually moved.
If I was relying on this book to help me with my emigration, I'd be stuffed!

Summary: Disappointing
Comment: My partner and I are thinking of moving to Australia so we've been researching everything from the job market to the weather in different areas. I ordered this book after reading two others and, unfortunately, I found that it covered the same areas as the other books but was far less informative. It looks like a children's book, has large text and is double spaced. It's like a pamphlet that a publisher decided to pad out to make a book.
If you are thinking of emigrating to Australia, buy the Red Guide or the fantastic "Living and Working in Australia". Avoid this one, unless you are after a really basic starting point.
