If, on the other hand, you're comfortable with browsing the manual on-line, then save your money. There's little in this book that isn't also in the on-line manuals that come with Tcl/Tk, and you can be certain that the on-line manual matches the Tcl/Tk release that you're using.
Vivid descriptions of the lusts of the torturers who profess to be Christians, and their assistants are portrayed. One is awed by how these holy men use religion as an excuse to profit sexually from their wards, to whom they are supposed to show the true way.
One finishes this work with the seed of doubt in their mind about what lurks behind the friendly face of their local holy man.
Great erotic reading!

Griffey's 89 Donruss over his 89 Upper Deck. At the time the book was written the Donruss sold for $4 and the Upper Deck for $12. The Donruss now goes for $12 and the Upper Deck for $150... and has been mentioned as possibly one of the best of the Modern Cards.

Just to name a few. I did appreciate a couple of their calls. 79 Topps Ozzie Smith,86 Sportflics Canseco/Greenwell/Tartabull Error. I thought the 89 Star Co. Bob Hamelin was a good call. He did only have one good year and then fizzled but the call did show insight. I gave the book 2 stars because the reading was enjoyable and informative. The picks were just terrible. In their defense I would like to say that most of these cards are from the "era of mass production" and as we all no scarcity as well as popularity drive a cards price. I didn't have time to price out all the cards in the book and then compare them to todays values, but maybe that would be a good rainey day project. If I do I will update this.
