I probably would have liked that class if my college hadn't degenerated it into nothing more than "group VB6 project". Bleh. I always hated group projects. /me "Does not play well with others." I really should actually read that book. I've heard a lot about what it says, and I like everything I've heard. Even without having read it, it's still influenced me a fair amount.
