Any good?  The amazon reviews are all glowing, but what's your take?  Strengths and weaknesses?

I've got all of them. Detailed and good. Feels like a complete repetoire and he gives several options sometimes which is always nice. A thick read though.

Wow!  Thanks for the nice, in depth response.  I'm thinking about getting one of the Grandmaster Repertoire books, but I'm unsure about which one.  I'm debating between Vol. 1 of the English or Vol. 2 of 1. d4.  I primarily open with 1. c4, but I'm thinking about transposing to queen's pawn openings against moves other than 1. . .e5
