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
