Default Shall i buy Arnold Synder\'s book?

Here's some background:
my current library consists of the following, poker for dummies, SS2, TOP, TPFAP, HOH123, NLHET&P, PL&NLP, IYP, LGB, AOTR, caro's book, GSIHE, real deal.
i have recently purchased little blue book, lindgren's book and kill phil. (i've not read these yet)

i play NLHE exclusively, cash games as well as tonaments.
i have been playing online for just over a year as a hobbie. ALL the money i have made playing poker i have spent on poker books. i have accepted i will never make it as a pro, but i love the game and love reading about it.

So i'm under the impression the book has very good advice and reading is +ev, but has some serious flaws.
basically i want someone who has read the book to assure me that i won't be missing out on anything by not reading it.

Bare in mind my poker library, shall i buy Arnold's book?

I havn't read the book but...

1) You like to read poker books.
2) Mason has given it a high rating.

So why not buy it?

If you are looking for a book on small to medium online tournaments, this is your book. If you are looking to crush SnGs or the cash games, look somewhere else.

A new edition of the magazine comes out the 1st of every month. It has its own forum for discussion of the articles.
