I don't know exactly how many pages it is (don't have my copy around, atm) but it is very complete. Its actually best for people who know a bit about biodiesel already, and are wanting to make the next step and actually make it. It goes over titrating and the other test processes, measuring, reactions, how to do test batches, etc. Its not just webpage stuff compiled together. Plus, if you have questions, girl mark is active on the biodiesel.infopop.cc and biodieselnow.com forums and lots of people are familiar with her methods and similar methods of others and are willing to clarify or help out with certain parts.
You don't 'need' a book to tell you what to do, there is enough info out there to do without, but its so spread out and much of it is not oriented to the homebrewer, so a book like this is a very good place to get some homebrewer-specific info from a good source. Once you've got some actual hands on experience, you'll know more about what else out there actually applies to homebrewers and how to tweak your methods.
peace,
sam
