Thanx to the numerous people who posted or sent email to me regarding the new Foley, Van Dam, etc. text. The general gist of all the replies is that the older tome is anywhere between 5 and 10 years out of date (published in 1982, I think!) and the newer volume does a very good job of presenting lots of material. Therefore, I decided to pick up a copy. It is everything everyone said and more. :-) Again, thanks for the advice! Stephen Peters
