4.0 out of 5 stars Isn't it Oshaughnessy - & Stadler?

I would recommend this product to everyone, as I believe its message is so important.
I don't like the way the 'other author?' - Stadler - is missing from this edition.
I very much like the way the information is presented to the reader and the content.
