I checked out that book on amazon too....looks pretty good, it's now in the shopping cart. The mixed reviews seem aligned with your suggestion (take what you want/discard the rest)....it seems people expect WAY too much from a book written in 1930 - but many of the core principles probably remain the same. Thanks for the tip B.
