The writing is very clear. Lots of visualization cues. Very easy to follow. What I like the most is his simple philosophy that you only need to know how to swing the club one way for all the clubs in your bag. It's working for me, and it greatly simplifies things.
Great book.

Faldo presents a step by step explaination of the 'keys' to his swing and drills to help you incorporate them into yours. Plenty of photographs and a logical progression from the basics to advanced shot shaping. Faldo, at his peak, was a masterful ball-striker and his thoughts and techniques (much of what was learned from Leadbetter) are easy to understand. A very informative book even if you are not in the Leadbetter swing camp.
Marvelous instruction from a marvelous golfer

This instructional from Nick Faldo is one of the most comprehensive golf books around. You can tell that Nick is very confident in what he knows and teaches about the golf swing and how to use the "modern swing" and its ability to hold up under championship conditions. I highly recommend this book, especially to golfers 6'2" and taller.
Faldo can Play and Teach

Rare the individual who can both play golf at such an amazing high level and teach it on the simple plain he demonstrates here in this book to us hackers.There are great gems throughout, but I picked up the best tip on one of my weakest areas, long bunker shots.The photo sequences are some of the best, so clear and to the point. The final section: Playing the Game, gives some head and strategy advice from one of the coolest, and a two-time Master Champ as well as British Open, etc.
Not only for the advanced . . .

I am relatively new to golf, having only picked up a club for the first time two years ago. I only truly began playing regularly last fall when my girlfriend gave me a set of irons and this book. Starting from the beginning of Faldo's book, I spent one month working on his drills inside and around my house in my spare time. I broke 100 two months later. I can't begin to explain the genius of this book, other then to say that it offers a stepwise and easy methodology to developing a reliable swing, while also offering excellant advice about bunker play, the short game, and putting. A must read for any new golfer looking to improve and to enjoy the game more.
