Nice review, thanks Jim. I have this book in the mail to me and I didn't know if I could get anything out of it but for $10 I figured why not. It does sound like it will be of use though. I'm glad I read your review.
One word for customers in the US - see if you can buy the book from a domestic bookseller. I didn't find out until my order shipped, but Xtreme Modeling only ships to the US by "zone rate" which turned out to be surface mail, taking "30-40 days"!

Thanks for the review. Looks like really interesting booklet. I ordered it from www.xtrememodelling.com 10 days ago, order status is still pending, no replies to emails. I would suggest to use some other shop.

Hm, couldn't edit my post. Anyway, just received items from xtrememodelling.com, so they just don't read emails and don't update order status, but send items just fine
EDIT: And Color Modulation Techniques: Zenithal Light which I got is in Spanish. So I guess it's up to readers of this forum to decide from which shop to order
