This is hot book, excellent book I have seen
Its a gigantic tome of course—its the book we’re referring to when we say we’re doing something “by the book.”. As such it lacks for creativity and outside the box thinking. This I can accept; what I find less agreeable in a book of this price is the lousy editing. Nearly every paragraph I’ve read has an error—a missing word, the wrong verb tense, etc. It gives the impression that either the editors didn’t care about the quality of the work, or they were in such a hellfire hurry that they left a trail of mistakes behind them. Are there other errors which aren’t so obvious? Important numbers such as doses, half-lives, response rates? I’m guessing so.
