No. But they're probably pretty similair. http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASI ... 26-7495918 is the one I have.
I've based a couple of brews on the recipes given.
So far the only recipe I 'cloned' was a Guinness partial mash. I was well chuffed with the result, and even a Guinness drinking friend of mine was impressed.
As soon as I can scrape the ingredients together (not easy over here) I'll get another one on the go.
Contender for dumbest question of the year.
The good thing about this book is that the recipe is primarily set out for extract/steeping, with a panel on the side for partial mash/all grain versions.
Obviously any novice will appreciate the recipe being explained to them in small steps, whereas a more experienced full masher only needs the more brief explanation.

noby,
I too have that book and their other one "Beer Captured" which I think is much better. Both books are very good. There are a lot more recipes in Beer Captured though and fewer lesser known world beers. It leans more towards the more famous US, UK, Belgian and German beers. There are some great recipes in it.

Agh!
Too late on that one! Too busy playing Tomb Raider last night
I think I'm going to go with Reg's first suggestion of Brew Your on Real Ale at Home by Wheeler/Protz.
I'll see if I can get a sneak of it down the bookstore.
There's loads of great suggestions here, but as D_a_a_B says, I'm a novice and need a few gallons under my belt before attempting the next level.

It's a good book with a good section on extract brewing technique, although I'm sure some of the other recommendations do a good job.
