How customer reviews and ratings work

Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.

5.0 out of 5 starsGreat Introduction to Product Management
Reviewed in the United States on February 12, 2021
Nice, soft, and non-overloaded overview and introduction into the nature of the Product Management life. Most of the criticism seems to come from people who already have a career in product management or have done substantial learning on the topic. This book is clearly not for them. Also, it is not the "Get hired as Product Manager" book. I would recommend it to the people who want all-encompassing knowledge of what a Product Manager does at their job. Yes, it has plenty of mentions of other books. When you work as a Product Manager, you will read plenty of other books. It is actually a great place to find out which books on what topics to read to become an awesome product manager.

3.0 out of 5 starsNo index makes it unusable
Reviewed in the United States on September 28, 2021
I have several product management books, and I almost never reach for this one because it doesn’t have an index. This means I’m never able to use it for quick reference.

The material I do manage to find is very general. It’s potentially useful if you’re looking to get into product management, but I can’t recommend it over anything else - especially when other books utilize an index.

Reviewed in the United States on May 17, 2018

This is a great book that covers all the basics that a product manager goes through with excellent recommendations. If you’re new to PM o ever even think of becoming one, this book will be your test. After reading this you’ll know if product management is for you.

2.0 out of 5 stars There's a 4 star book buried in here
Reviewed in the United States on July 30, 2017
Verified Purchase
I want to like this book. However, it reads like a high school paper trying to make a word count requirement. Every chapter is bloated. Almost all of the ideas are copied from better sources. Could easily be 80% shorter. Not sure I learned anything.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Title oversells itself, but great primer.
Reviewed in the United States on January 15, 2022
Verified Purchase
The Product Book is a great book: gives great coverage of the product environment and general and the non-controversial tools that every Product Manager should be aware of and probably using.

What the book is not: a field manual. If you are product person who still needs to evangelize in their organization, this book is a great reference.
