Good Translation. Poor Hyperlinks I enjoy the more modern translation of this book, but the hyperlinks lead to a dead web site. There isn't anyway to go to another part of the book without being taken to a dead web site. I'd give more stars if the hyperlinks actually linked to something. But for now, I'll settle with reading through the book and bookmarking.. bytz said One Star. A complete waste of time.. A much easier edition!! I tried several different editions of this book and found them very challenging to read and understand. The edition is much easier to read and understand. I am sure the purists would cringe that someone is reading this edition but for me when I coupled it with the Cliff Notes I was able to accomplish my goal of reading the book and benefiting from content.
