"This book was somewhat disappointing. While rather complete it has some major flaws. Among these flaws are its errors in equations and the text itself. Its unconventional mathematical notation is a little off putting in places as well although this is easily overcome.
I have a copy of the third edition and find that to be far superior. It is much more verbose in its explanations. In trying to make the latest edition more terse the author obfuscated it. Additionally the third edition speaks much more about various experiments that can be done or were done in this field."
