Probably! :-)
I've nearly finished reading it now, and I've certainly picked up a lot from
it. A couple of parts went in and then straight out again, such as the
section on "Concentrator Configuration States" - lots of abbreviations and it
looks pretty specialised; I'm really just learning about the theory behind it
all, which I assume is still current??

Ah, so it's (kind of) like an ISBN number? Just to refer to a book?
