I think it's the best book on the market. But this book cannot cover all. So, I recommand to read the other books which have different styles. For example, Ace Your Case or Crack The Case.

-GOOD-
1. Ivy Case System can give you a guideline. It's worth reading.
2. It explains well how to proceed - defining the problem, setting the goal and so on.
3. This book has many cases than the other books. And they are categorized.

-BAD-
1. All books on the market regard the case as a quiz on the desk. But the real case is a simulation of REAL consulting practice. For example, you may have to suggest HOW you support your hypos in real case interviews.
2. All books on the market do not emphasize the consultant's thinking process. For example, MECE and hypo-driven approach. This book also do not clearly show which issue tree the interviewee uses and how he eliminate his hypos.
3. Ivy Case System is too hard to remember. In this point, Crack The Case is better.
4. The cases are too short to see the interaction. One case is just 2~3 pages. So, it has some distance from the REAL interview. Ace Your Case is better in this point.
