New Dave Baum Book?

I notice Dave Baum has just published a book called "Dave Baum's
Definitive Guide to Lego Mindstorms," complete with CDROM.

Has anyone read this book?

The cover claims the book includes:
  -- Numerous projects including 14 sample robots to build
  -- Important construction techniques and step-by-step instructions
for building robots
  -- Teaches readers how to program in LEGO'S RCX and the author's own
language, NQC

I'd specifically be interested in any comparisons between Dave's book
and Knudsen's Unofficial Guide to LEGO Mindstorms Robots," but would
welcome any opinions.

Thanks,
Mark Winters
