Default how to calculate net carbs

how come in my atkins book the carb amounts for foods are diferent than what they say on the labels. i know when you figure up the net carbs you subtract the dietary fiber but do you subtract other things also.
to give an example when i looked up the amount of carbs in celery online it
comes out to be 2 net grams but in the atkins book under acceptable food list it has celery listed has .8 net carbs?
