Not quite as advertised
This is just a list book. The actual amounts of FODMAPs are not listed and neither or their classifications. Some of the foods here do not match Monash’s list. Same information can be found for free on multiple apps and websites. Cannot recommend.
The food additive part gives it 2 stars, otherwise it would be 1.

Handy Guide
I found this short brochure to be a handy guide in the kitchen as a person new to eating a low FODMAP diet. It helped me in cleaning out my pantry and refrigerator while I was preparing for a new diet. I did learn something I hadn't read before in my research on this diet approach. That it can take up to 3 days for a food to pass through your digestive tract. That is one reason it can be difficult to pinpoint what foods trigger your digestive discomfort.
While I found this brochure helpful, I think I would prefer an app on my phone because it would be quicker to check the FODMAP rating of a food when out shopping or dining or for making out a grocery list.
The Monash app is highly rated but is not free. I chose the Fast FODMAP Lookup app as it has lists with a fast lookup, a diary, an even some learning games. When you get to the phase where you introduce moderate FODMAP foods, a diary is essential and it's easier to have everything together in one app.

REVIEW
So this review is slightly out of the normal and different to the majority of reviews I do. Firstly this is a non-fiction book (which I do love reading non fiction too, on subjects I am interested in).
Being totally new to this way of thinking and eating I was hoping for a simplified description of what FODMAP is and how it would help my digestive issues.
This book is about something personally close to me, my health. I suffer and have been diagnosed as having IBS for many years now, add to that my Ehlers Danlos Syndrome, and Menieres Disease and you will understand my eagerness to try this particular books suggested way of eating.
The cover is in my opinion quite eye-catching, bright green, a colour I myself associate with healthy food. I like that the title of the book is presented in too forms, the actual written title and the cover image of a compass/navigator.
The genre of this book is obviously non-fiction, a dietary advice book, and falls into a health and well-being genre.
Not knowing a lot about the specific "diet" covered in this book, or as I would prefer to say the FODMAP "way of eating"I was super enthusiastic to learn much more.
The book starts by explaining FODMAPs are a collection of short chain carbohydrates and sugar alcohols found in foods naturally or as food additives. FODMAPs include fructose (when in excess of glucose), fructans, galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS), lactose and polyols (eg. sorbitol and mannitol).
This book explains things well and even better there is an extensive list of foods that are then rated low or high in FODMAPS. The size of this book is perfect to slip in your handbag to be at hand to refer to whilst shopping or eating out.
The book also features some interesting sounding recipes too. Sadly I haven't had chance to attempt them yet as I am still eliminating certain foods at the trial or error phase. So far I have discovered a sensitivity toward gluten. The awkward thing now is functioning and eating without gluten in my diet.
So my final thoughts are I found this book, helpful, interesting and informative as well as it being a first positive step to an improvement in my health and well-being. Useful, honest, information about a new way of eating that I find myself needing to try.

Short and to the point
Does what it says it will do. Detailed lists of food, with ratings of FODMAP content for all. Useful start.
