I love to read books, like the one referenced, because the good ones provide a great opportunity to see a balanced view on a specific topic. Unfortunately, that is not likely to happen with this one for two reasons.  First, it is listed on Amazon for $182.26 for a pre-buy, which is a little deep for my pocket.  Second, I used the 'Look Inside' feature to review some of the material, and it is so dry that my lips got chapped from reading it.  I HATE when authors don't (or can't) make their material palatable.  Even text books can be written in an interesting style.  Maybe, I am just a victim of my era (wah, make it easy for me!), but, from my perspective, this tome is doomed to end up on library shelves to be referenced to death from the 26 copies that eventually get sold.  And, this is from someone, who WANTS to read it.  Maybe, it will eventually be available as a download for $9.99?  It makes me sad to write these comments, because I like to read BOOKS, not screens.  But, I guess I am just a throwback.
