3.0 out of 5 stars Online Trading.... Well........, July 12, 2009

By	W. Lang (Chicago, IL) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The book is an over view of interviews you could of gotten from the magazine. I was expecting new interviews and not the same rehased stuff I've read before... However, its nice to have the interviews layed out in such a way that its easy to follow and understand, and it makes a semi-decent reference book when needed.
