HEP was also originally written on the old blind structure so that may make the book less relevent.

the double blind structure was updated in the book for all editions dated 1997 and later. 2+2 wouldn't bother to continue selling the book if that part wasn't fixed.
it's still an EXCELLENT introduction for beginners and packs a lot of useful, correct information into a very compact 110 pages or so, making for a efficient and unintimidating read. chapter 4 "Flops You Want" and the chapter 5 strategy sections are as good as any first-timer books that have been written since.
the only potential drawback is the $19.95 list price which seems high for a skinny book. but it's readily available at most discount retailers for 25-40% off.
