Rating: - Dated - but still terrific!!!
By its very nature, this sort of material is dated by the time it can go to press.

In addition, supporting material on-line is fresh and regularly updated. A solid 5 stars!

But for the not-so-lazy group, you can get all this information off addon sites quite easily.
