Pleased

I was happy with this purchase. Other than being a softcover, this intl. version is basically the same book as the more expensive U.S. hardcover edition.

Excellent book - But it could use a "cosmetic" update

Good subject coverage, knowledgeable author, and plenty of uncluttered figures makes this book very worthwhile. The only thing missing from this excellent book is an update. Although this is the third edition (1998), almost all of the equipment photographs are from the early-to-mid 1970's. An extensive and broad Suggested Reading section follows most chapters but again far far too many references are to early 1970's books and manuals. An update could earn this book a 5+ rating.
