stevex's review against another edition

4.0

I first read this 2 or 3 years ago, and after reading a few more books on the same subject, I came back to have a flick through this one.

I don't know whether it's due to my more developed understanding of the subject matter, but (admittedly only based on re-skimming through the book) this is a much better book than I remembered.

Previously, it had seemed thorough but a bit verbose and unlclear in parts. Now, it seems very clear and well laid out - it illustrate the text very well with good example diagrams. The notation summary in Appendix A is really useful.
