Wait until your library gets a copy, and read that one. That's what I did. (Of course, in your case the wait might be quite a bit longer.) The book reads like an expose'. You'll always find some people to like that sort of thing, even it it's baseless. My capsule review: Although the book is not as bad as I thought it would be, Ms. Weil gets both the people and the technology wrong.
