Negative Positive
Title: Why was this book written?
Review: This text is not up-to-date with the latest developments in SPM techniques, even though it has a fairly recent copyright. The material that is covered is poorly organized. The author fails to develop a discussion on one technique before moving into another. I'm not sure why the author felt the need to write this book, as it generally doesn't provide any current or complete discussion of any modern SPM methods.
