Default Donny Petersen's Book

Just a heads up, Donny Petersen's new book is on Amazon now.

IF you like how he explains things, it is the first in a planned series. I suspect it is NOT written for just the guy doing routeen Maint. but understanding the "gizmo" is always a good idea, IMHO.

For those who are frugal and want to review the book first you can get it as an eBook for about $5 (http://*******.com/ypr9ys). I thought it was great but I haven't ordered the hard copy yet.
