Though you should take the reviews with a grain of salt, especially the five star reviews.
There was a thread sometime back about an ATM book where it seemed pretty clear that negative reviews with comments on the bad science were being pulled. If you just went by the reviews on that site you would likely get a distorted view of the book.
It isn't a consistent issue (I've seen other things get what appear to be fair reviews), but I wouldn't trust the reviews too far.
