I have the hardcover version of this book. Good book. Also an example of how older books are better written for a broader audiences than most technical books today. It really shouldn't be that hard but it is. Basically today they are written for the author's own ego or for a small elite group of peers and NOT for anyone with more modest knowledge. Pretty much a waste of time writing at all in many cases. I think people has broader education plus only top-flight people went to college so that resulted in similar broader abilities like simply writing well and having clear ideas and explanations. This is why I have nearly as many books written before 1950 as written after. The best explanations come from older books written long ago.
