Here is a link to the Amazon page with table of contents and preview. I haven't had a chance to purchase much less start to read, but I hope if people here are interested and go through it they will comment in the thread below. Also below is the Table of Contents:

I am reading it and it is very insightful.
It is not the style of Emliy A Austin´s book, and the quality is similarly high
