Great if you're planning to make a ton of soap to begin with...
By S. Myers
I think this book won't help too many beginning/novice soap makers. The process is only slightly more complicated than cold process soap making, and the way it's explained, it's not very intimidating. Just more steps, and more ingredients.
However, my main complaint (and why it isn't the best for beginners) is that all of the recipes make commercial-size batches of soap (author mentions that recipes make 50-60 "average sized" bars of soap). This is great when you're making soap to sell or want to do a lot for holiday gifts, but for your first time making transparent soap it could lead to a LOT of wasted ingredients (if you miss or mess up a step).
For future editions, I'd like to see at least one beginner recipe that makes just 1-2 pounds of soap with this process, to familiarize readers with it on a smaller scale with less risk. Otherwise I think the book is easy to read and the directions seem easy to follow. The author also gives good advice on buying your ingredients to avoid spending more money than necessary, particularly for the alcohol needed as a solvent in the later steps (hint: if you buy it from the liquor store, you'll likely overpay).

Best soap-making book on the market.
By Laura E. Lindler
I bought this book several years ago and it is the best soap-making book I've found. The instructions are simple and easy to follow and the different ingredients used are explained perfectly. I had made soap many times before I bought this book and I used to use the cold-process method. My soap was good, but it takes several weeks for cold-process soap to complete it's chemical reaction. After it's cured, if it is stored for any length of time it shrinks and so it doesn't look as good then. Also, the cold-process soaps I made tended to be somewhat soft and would be used up rather quickly. All of those problems disappeared with the soaps made from this book's recipes. The recipes call for alcohol. After experimenting with several kinds of alcohol, I settled on using EverClear. It smells good in the soap, and doesn't dry the skin, contrary to what one might think. The EverClear costs more than the cheapest vodka, but the results are dramatically better. When I went to the Chemical store (it's in the city where I live) to buy the scents and bulk supplies, the chemist said that clear soap can't be made at home because it had to cooked under pressure and that it would take a genius to figure out how to do it. He wanted to sell me the melt-and-pour soap base, and I felt like he'd challenged me, so I went home and made transparent soap with this book and it turned out great. Yes, the soap is cooked under pressure, but all it takes is following the instructions in the book where a sheet of plastic is bungeed over the soap-making pot and that pot is placed inside a bigger pot of boiling water. After cooking for a time, the soap is poured into molds and is ready to use as soon as it cools and hardens. This is the hot-process and the soap is very thin when it is ready to be poured into the molds. This makes it very easy to mold well (no tapping out air pockets) but your molds must be water-tight. Regular soap molds work well, but home-made loaf-type molds need to be lined so they don't leak. My sister has the first book I bought and won't give it back, so I am buying another one.

I love this book
By olesya
I love this book. Highly recommend it to beginners. Recipes are easy. If you want to make a transparent soap and are looking for a helpful reassures, buy this book. I have tried different recipes, and all my attempts was not successful. However, after I have made transparent soap by Catherine's Failor recipes I have got perfect transparent soap at the first try with good soap qualities. Very, very helpful.
