Levine provides a detailed list of how to evaluate a publishers contract including what to expect when you actually get paid. His ease of description provides understanding of the legal aspects of contract jargon.

His groupings of publishers show author friendly contracts.

His inclusion of Xulon Press as one of the best publishers was disappointing after I researched their website. Vanity press comes to my mind, yet his approval for them did not indicate that. I was glad that I had sought other counsel regarding this publisher before accepting his evaluation.

Overall, the list was helpful. He provides a way to compare apples to apples in a market where oranges and peaches can't be found with the apples. A difficult undertaking to warn authors of the legalities of publishing.

You gotta read this before you pick a self publishing company. (ok call it a vanity press if you want)
The lawyer reads all those online agreements that you never read because you are a writer and not a lawyer and tells you which companies will not screw you. Good info if you are a poor writer, like most of us.

Super-helpful if you are considering paying for a self-publishing package.
If you're intent on figuring it all out yourself and uploading ready-to-go files to Amazon/CreateSpace/wherever, it's not quite as relevant. However, it's still great to get an overview of points to consider and pitfalls to watch out for, including details like whether or not to accept a "free" ISBN number. Clearly, a tonne of work went into compiling this book. I'm glad I read it.
