Are you related to the publisher or author ? I saw a book by this title in a k-mart blue light book sale for $.99. I was excited and started looking it over... After a VERY short period of time, I kinda discovered that this book was so far out of date that it wasn't funny. I hope this is a newer edition, else a different book. However, if you really want to be up to date, look in your local libraries magazines in print, else stop by a EE dept. There are several magazines that are dedicated to sensor technology. Advertisers in these mags are more than willing (usually) to send information, publications, and even give tech help on the cutting edge of technology. al
