If it is the first edition of that book, I *strongly* recommend against it.  It's 
absolutely
miserable and teaches very, very poor coding habits (not to mention that some of the 
most critical
code is broken).

I have heard, however, that the second edition fixes many of the flaws found in the 
first edition.
 I have not had a chance to read this edition yet, but I intend to do so when I get 
the chance.

Cheers,
Curtis Poe
