I agree, excellent book as are all of Tony's other books on such things. I've had my copy since it came out several years ago and refer to it on a regular basis.

Thank you for your kind remarks, gentleman - I'm glad you like it.
The good news is that I maintain an "updates" page for the book on my website, which is becoming quite extensive.
The bad news is that the publishers sold the last copies a year or so ago...
