• Wonderful combination
  Since I am a librarian, usually I don't buy books that I can check out from the library. However, this book is definitely an exception. The first copy of this book I bought in the '80's.

The book gives many useful points, but for general problems most of the time. His knowledge in some promblematic areas goes into more depth than others.
