User Review -

While the printed version of this book is certainly excellent, this electronic version is a complete waste of money. The pages have been scanned in as images instead of being converted to text. Which means you can't change fonts or adjust the font size, making the book all but illegible even on a 10.1" tablet. And since there's no text, you can't search, and there are no cross reference hyperlinks, making this reference work utterly worthless.
