I don't have it, but the people I know who do LOVE it.

I have it and love it. One of the best cooking books I've ever had.

I read a library copy, which I generally do before buying food books; while
it was interesting, I decided it was not useful enough to buy. However,
Ruhlman has suggested that there may someday be a poster of the cover
illustration, which is a most concise presentation of the usable information
in the book.

My suggestion, get it from the library, read it and photocopy the front
cover for reference.

I borrowed it from the library. An interesting read, I guess.
