Description

Don't get me wrong. Content-wise, this book is indispensable. However, the Kindle edition is almost unusable. The contents of the book are all displayed using a single proportional font, and it appears that most of the formatting for the source code is lost. As a result, you find that you have source code getting lost in the middle of text, incomprehensible pieces of code where things are spread over two or three lines, and just plain messiness all around. The loss of formatting of the source code makes this edition of the book almost useless for the purpose of reference. I am afraid that this is a problem we will be seeing for most ebooks for a long time, and it is rather depressing. In short, I can't recommend this book in electronic form. Go ahead and bite the bullet and just haul the regular one around.
