Sounds like you were told that by someone who didn't like the Good 
News Bible :-)

The Handbook series is designed for lay and ordained Bible teachers 
and for translators, according the Bible society description. 
Actually if I recall correctly there are two series. One is the 
handbooks the other is the Translators Guides. The text presented 
in the Handbooks is the Good News Bible =and= the Revised Standard 
Version. Comments relate to understanding and communicating the 
nuances of the original language text.
