Nice
Very good material

Wonderful, but flawed. Needs work, but worth getting--unless people will be charged automatically!
This is about the latest version. (For some reason, iTunes had greyed out "Write a review" when the Current Version button was clicked and active!) Excellent content. Scientifically grounded and well-written, with nice photos and illustrations. Several issues. 1. There are smartly thought out navigational controls, albeit complex ones in some cases--e.g., bringing up the page thumbnails doesnt seem to work well. Turning pages sometimes fails-- it works better when not zoomed in. Overly sensitive or mis-sensitive to left-right, up-down swipes-- it will often go left-right when you wanted to go up or down! 2. The help system is out of date and misstates several things. The icons at the bottom are NOT tabs; plus there are now more of them than when the system was written; and "My Editions" is NOT one!. 3. Lose the bookmark symbol for the table of contents!! Thats confusing. 4. Very odd thing-- The Developer Website link here is broken-- it goes to http://localhost/ 5. It was creepy putting in ones iTunes password to get access to the magazine. I suppose thats SOP, but there should be more of an explanation of whats going on. 6. I am now "subscribed" which brings up another source of angst! I do NOT want to be paying automatically for issues, but the information about how that works is unclear. Part of the help system implies that a set of editions (issues) will appear with price tags (including "free" for those issues that are). However, nothing shows up! There is only 1 edition, last Augusts free one. So, are there are other stories?! 7. I have turned off In-app purchases--I just trust that will prevent automatic issues being downloaded and my being charged. Bottom line: well worth downloading, even if just for the free issue provided. But do be on the lookout for what happens with the subscription--and be aware that the controls are flakey and could be better designed.
