About this title

Review:

"Bob Parmley. "I briefly reviewed Kjelgaard's proposal and draft manuscript for his book and was very impressed with the presentation....When a professional needs accurate data, time generally is a factor. Thus, this book would complement the technical library. My firm certainly would purchase one, if within a reasonable price range.
