WYSIWYG -
It's good. Really comprehensive. This book is what it is/what it seems. Didn't let me down. Of course, there are many places I haven't checked out in this book, but it's good.
Bike Repair -
Excellent book! The best we have seen on the market! Highly recommend it to anyone.
Good for basic repairs, and an excellent way to teach your kids how to fix their own bikes! - 
Todd Down is one of those cycling writers whom you quickly learn to respect. He's one of those self-taught cycling gurus who has the ability to write in an easy-going style that gets his point across.
And this style shows up in The Bicycling Guide to Complete Bicycle Maintenance and Repair: For Road and Mountain Bikes (Expanded and Revised 5th Edition), a paperback edition that should be on the bookshelf of many cycling enthusiasts, as it has excellent coverage on the maintenance and repair of mountain and road bikes alike. It's a basic but good reference, with easy-to-follow instructions. The photos and illustrations are quite helpful when trying to tackle an upkeep issue.
This reader found the chapter on wheels and tires to be very thorough. His instructions for spoke maintenance and replacement, along with the section on truing wheels, to be quite helpful with solving a problem on one of my bikes.
There are a couple of other books worthy of considering if you're looking for decent books on bicycle maintenance and/or repair. Zinn and the Art of Mountain Bike Maintenance and Zinn and the Art of Road Bike Maintenance (2nd Edition), both by Leonard Zinn, are well worth considering, both for content and ease of understanding. But if you want to save some bucks and go for a single volume that will probably cover about 90% of the basic repairs that you'll come up against, then stick with Todd Down's book here. This one is also an excellent resource for teaching youngsters how to perform basic bicycle repairs as well.
If you need a manual that goes into greater depth, be sure to look into Big Blue Book of Bicycle Repair 2nd Edition by Calvin Jones. Also known by some as "BBB-2", this a 5-star manual which is considered by many, especially advanced riders and cycle shops, to be the best reference around. This one is considered by some to be somewhat tool-centric, but considering that it comes from Park Tool, that is understandable. Note: don't mistake this for the earlier Big Blue Book of Bicycle Repair, which was published in 2005. The newer 2nd edition is far better.
In conclusion, if your needs are for a basic bike DIY fix-it book, then Todd Down's Bicycling Guide to Complete Maintenance and Repair will probably fit your needs, especially if you're going to teach youngsters how to do basic repairs themselves. If you need more, then by all means pick BBB-2.
