Don't even think of traveling on glaciers before you read it 
Andy is the authority on glacier travel. Walking on a glacier is like walking on the moon. Don't even think of traveling on glaciers before you read it.

Specific for beginners 
This book focused on the specifics of travel and rescue on glaciers. It allowed the beginner to get an idea of how to read glaciers and recognize strong and weak points. The setting of anchors was described in a way easier enough and with enough diagrams that made beginners and advanced alpinists comfortable. The book did not much on travel, but is excellent for rescue situations.
