The introductory books and materials are useful for new comers.
An advanced techniques book would be very useful to a lot of people.

Let me clarify: I don't want to know why "someone" "might" want to buy a
TDG3, I want to know why _you_ _do_ want to buy one.

If an advanced techniques book specifically for RB existed I'd buy it because I tend to buy a lot of books. Some days I think I single handedly keep the print publishers in business.

Last year I spent nearly $3500 on books of various kinds.

I keep a large library because I do a lot of things and I simply cannot keep 100% of everything I do in my head.

So, I keep handy references for the times when I don't immediately recall how to do something instead of wasting time figuring out where the heck it might be on the web or for when I'm not connected to the net (like really long flights)
