A great book

This was a terrific book; it's not for specialized use, nor does it make any pretension to be. It has extraordinary organization that I think should be the standard for all such books. It is concise, well written, and covers a lot of territory. For anyone who wants a good reference that is easily understood and is full of really important information, I recommend this.
