Anyone seen an early release of this Title?  I've felt there is a need for a very strong text on this subject does this fill the void?

I am not holding out high hopes as writing an all encompassing book on Reverse Engineering is akin to catching lightning in a bottle.  This is absolutely not a slam at the authors only that the subject matter, like most in any research topic, moves at such break neck speed that you can only capture an instance of what is going on.

What would be most helpful in this manner is not a book on a specific tool, or tools (as they quickly become antiquated or superseded) but a book on the thought process, patterns, history, etc.  I would personally save specific tool discussion to an appendix which may be ignored in the future or used for historic reference.

Just my opinion on the vast array of RE-related books I have  read through over the years.
