This book is OK for the basics, but it is outdated and doesn't have a lot of the current diagnostic techniques. Also, I was under the impression that it gave preparation needs for the tests it lists and it doesn't really do that. It was inexpensive, but I would have rather spent that money toward a more recently published book.
