The review is in French. You can read a Google-Translate English version here. From the latter:
As we can see, the book is not a simple synthesis: it is innovative, well documented, very informed on many subjects. Thanks to this sixth update, it will accompany research for a long time to come and will remain one of the best books about the coins of Second Temple Judaism, to put in everyone's hands.
