There is a section on PLO in Super System II, though IMO it is not worth buying the book just for that section.

A book has to be absolutely useless, or in fact harmful, to be worth less than what you pay for it. "Not worth buying the book" should be extremely harsh criticism for a poker book.

If you are going to blatently twist the meaning of my words, you might want to leave out the full quote next time.

I think the Berman chapter is faulty but not terrible; for a brand new player it probably wouldn't be all that bad and might even more accessible then the Reuben/Caffione stuff (which is much better material by far but not as oriented toward new players). But, I agree if that's the only reason you are buying that book you might be better off just reading it in the bookstore. However, the Todd Brunson chapter on Stud H/L 8b is fantastic and the Omaha H/L 8b sesction by Bobby Baldwin and Mark Gregorich is solid. Also, Daniel Negraneu's advice on 2-7 Triple Draw, while not revolutionary or earth-shattering, is very good primer on the game and would allow even an inexperienced draw player to fair pretty well at the game.
