Title: Just as good as later versions
Product review: I bought this book for a spectroscopy class I'm taking. I was worried that getting an earlier version would cause me to lose a lot of content, but really the only difference between this 3rd edition and the 4th is a chapter on heteroatom NMR, which you can easily get from someone else if others in your class get the updated version. The book is a fabulous reference for problem-solving, but doesn't go into detail explaining the theory behind it or anything, so if you are looking for that, I'd recommend getting a textbook like the ones from Silverstein or Crews.
