One of my volumes arrived with pages there were improperly cut and trimmed (leaving them ragged).

On most books, I wouldn't bother. But these are sure to be collectable in the future.

Simpson's is exchanging the volume now.

The electronic version of the book is tremendous. A laptop weighs considerably less than one of the real book volumes and it's quite fast to search and annotate the book electronically.

The organization and scholarship in this set is outstanding. The writing is quite thorough and well done. The level of detail, I'm just starting to approach.
