Not an especially exciting topic, but author provides a reasonable, well-organized discussion of managing debt, with separate chapters on student loans, mortgages, credit cards, etc. Probably you'd need to go into more depth (and he provides references for where you can find it) to implement some of the trickier strategies (e.g., equity acceleration, which sounded to me like paying for virtually everything from a home equity line of credit), but for the most part it's straightforward stuff--pay off highest-interest credit card first etc. Nice tone throughout of taking it seriously but showing compassion for those in over their heads or in need of filing for bankruptcy. The "predatory lenders" in particular come in for frequent tongue-lashings. Should add the college I attended to this list.
