I was given the book a couple of Christmases ago. The basics are in it but what it sets out to be is the most complete and comprehensive manual possible on the subject, consequently 90% of the contents are stuff I would never use. It's now gathering dust on a bookshelf, can't give it to a charity shop just yet in case the giver notices it's not there.
I must add that I've only just read this thread, I didn't bother when it first appeared because the header "wasn't me". But the four pages have turned out to be one of the most interesting, and sensible too, reads I've seen on the forum for some time.
