Resurrecting this old thread to say: This book has been at the back of my mind (& on my wishlist) ever since **WordMan** originally posted the thread, but I’d never gotten around to buying or reading it. Today (3/2), however, it’s Amazon’s Kindle Deal of the Day for $1.99, at which price I snapped it up.
