solid and well rounded

I downgraded this from 5 to 3 stars due to there being no PDF with it. books like these should always have PDF companion material for all the supplementary references, links, charts, formulas, etc....

otherwise it's a great introduction, but it would benefit from a chapter on conflicts of interest. otherwise I'd recommend this to anyone starting out or for refresh.
