Rick mentioned this book as a possibility for the OlyBlog bookclub. If enough people are interested, I'm all for it. The only drawback that I see/saw is the cost of the book (used copies of new books being in short supply). Another possibility would be to get a few copies of this and just perpetually float it around the OlyBlogosphere. Thanks to a lost & found gift certificate I've already ordered one. Anyone else game for one of these approaches?
