I purchased this book after reading a recent thread about Arpeggios. I just received it tonight and after reading the first few pages I was impressed, however the chord charts make absolutely no sense to me. They are unlike any chord chart I've seen. For instance a G Major Chord. I'm sure it's just me but if someone has the book and would explain the charts it would be appreciated :)
Here's a pic of G Major from the book.

What you've got there is an interestingly portrayed barre chord at the third fret. That thick black line across the third fret with a numeral "1" by it is a symbolic representation of your index finger barring all six strings behind the third fret.
It's just an unusual graphic. If you're not familiar with barred chords, it makes not sense. If you are familiar with them, it makes slightly more sense.
Clear as mud?
