great review Séan. Looks like exactly the sort of thing I waste most of my time trawling to find out, and then I never think to write any of it down. Will certainly pick it up. Well done Les!

I'd say a bit of both by the descriptions I've read. The first edition was actually first published in 2001, and was 666 pages long (spooky). Les must have done a lot of pruning to squeeze the new addition down to 366 pages (less spooky).
