Review of the reviews, 2008-08-23
I read most if not all of the reviews after clicking product reviews for the January 2008 version. Is there no product review of this January 2008 version or does it contain the same informatiion as the 2006 version?

Very expensive, and not worth it, 2008-01-28
I had to purchase this as it is required for a class, but even our teacher admits that the book is not that great. It's a very boring read, indeed.
