Exactly what I was looking for. It's become a regular reference in my practice. My only quibble is the cover feels thinner than expected. Happy enough with the purchase.

Good but demanding

I've read excerpts online before, but having the full text is different. You can tell why this work has endured. A few pages arrived with light corner wear, though nothing serious. Good, with the caveats above.
