Sorry I forgot the -6 at the end of the isbn #. It is the new book BSCN book
by Thomas M.Thomas II and company.
So to be clear the isbn is 0-07-212477-6
I have stopped reading it at page 120 yesterday.
I was a little (ok, very) frustrated about the way it is written.
There are a few mistakes: wrong figures to example (Chapt 4), typos, wrong
answer at end of chapter 2 and material not covered adequatly.
I want to be fair to Mr. Thomas so I will continue to review the book as I
go along.
I would sure appreciate some feedback from anybody including Mr. Thomas. I
will go to his site and comment there also at the end of my reading.
I understand that there are always typos, and such in books, being an ex
instructor, but there is a level of expectation
and a serious amount of $$$$$$$$$$$$ that I spend in technical/study
material and I at least expect my $$$$$ worth.
So far I am not a happy customer!!!!!!!!! After, I am done the reading we'll
see.

Hey I am only on page 65 and I am getting a little ticked off.
I've been waiting for this book for a month now and I finally got it.
(ordered it so I could not look at it before I paid).
ISBN: 0-07-212477
So far there is a lot of assumption from the authors. All is just "thrown"
with little or no explanation.
Chapter 2 answer key (2.10) full of errors
Typo's: too many to mention
Figures on Chapter 3 (page 65) not very well presented (personal opinion)
I had high expectation and was anticipating a really good book.
I will follow up on this but sure would like some feedback.
Daniel
