Yes it is. OH and another recent book thats exceptional. is the one by Gulko, Lessons with a grandmaster. Its not really meant to be a positional primer but its a lot like Silman's amateur mind but more advanced.
Comparing Gulko to Silman is like comparing Shakespeare to Zane Gray. I think Lessons with a Grandmaster is destined to become one of the classics.
