probably good when it was written
This is a dated product. You might be able to pick out a few pieces of interesting (and still applicable) insight. But the bulk of this is either old news, or about Omaha limit, which no one plays. Good omaha books are hard to find!

Must-Read.
Bob Ciaffone's classic is a must-read for any player serious about learning to play Omaha proficiently. If the book seems a little light at first glance, just remember that it was originally written over two decades ago, and its place in poker literature is secure. I think the strength of the content will also surprise you a bit at times, as even seemingly mundane topics such as "Community Card Poker" and "Betting and Blind Structure" have surprising value.
Frankly, everything the man writes is golden. And coming from hold'em, this was the book that really changed the way I thought about Omaha and got me on the right track. For those familiar with my work, I should note that it was Bob's original section on the straight draws that I built upon.
For players new to Omaha, Bob Ciaffone's Omaha Poker is as good a place as any to start.

Decent introduction - emphasis: introduction
If you have experience in holdem and know the rules of omaha, you'll find this book is really an introduction. After discounting the "about the anuthor", "history of omaha" and the other space-filler pages, only about 90 page remains... I wish I'd spend the reading time on-line with g..gle and then throw the price on a poker site where I can practice. I'd have learned more with this way.

Good value for a beginner/intermediate book
The book was written in fairly easy to read format. The book did a very good job of explaing PLO and I would recomened this to anyone who is looking for a good book on PLO.
There was not much technical writing in the book so it was nice to read.

One of the best for omaha
If you are going to play Pot-Limit Omaha Poker (PLO), then this is probably the best book to learn with. it covers starting hands, how to play in different situations and so forth.
