    Here's the second revision notes:

    This book represents the Second Edition of Inside the Metal Detector. The First
    Edition had a number of inconsistencies which made it obvious that it was written
    partly by a British and partly by an American. Besides the normal corrections to typos
    and such, we’ve attempted to make everything more consistent.
    This edition is also about 50 pages lighter. We have removed the chapters on
    Long Range Locators and the Pistol Detector. The reason these chapters were
    included in the First Edition was because there is a broad interest in LRLs and most of
    the available information (and public perception) is just plain wrong. We wanted to
    get accurate information into published literature. The Pistol Detector project was an
    extension of LRLs, showing how it is easy to create a non-dowsing LRL that can produce
    misleading results. Now that we’ve succeeded in publishing all this information,
    we’ve removed it to make ITMD more focused on real detecting technology. Perhaps
    in the future we’ll release a much-expanded look into the wacky world of LRLs.
    Thanks Qiaozhi

    "...This edition is also about 50 pages lighter..."

    And therefore the price is lighter too?



    P.S.
    Since i got firs book as gift, for free... now is logical you to send me second book also for free PLUS 10 quids over... to compensate missing pages!

    Put money between pages, it's alright to send it like that!



    P.S. 2

    "...Put money between pages..."
    But DON'T put money between missing pages man!
