The book is one big piece of nonsense with a myriad of errors.

Amazon says that version 2 is coming out in June. I wonder if it will be a corrected version of the original or if it has been completely redone.

The questions you will be asked in an interview are also multiple choice, right?

Do yourself a favour and throw it in the garbage. It's idd full of (big) mistakes, and not nearly as detailed enough. Makes you wonder how he got through his interviews...

I see a second edition has been released.. Anyone knows if 'all' the failures are corrected in this version?

That was the original idea, but then the editors decided to keep all the errors there. Otherwise people answering correctly would start failing assessments because their answers wouldn't be correct according to the old version.:}

The questions are pretty good actually for preparation however the explanations aren't the best and there are many errors but they are easy to spot and they often miss the point.

I was interviewed for a SO job at Cathay in 2007.
One of the questions I was asked :

"Why does the Anvil form in the mature stage of a thunderstorm "?

Any guesses what the apparent correct answer is ?

"Why does the Anvil form in the mature stage of a thunderstorm "?

Anvil is formed at the end of mature stage. During the start of the decaying stage equilibrium within the surrounding air is reached near the top of the Cb Cell. This will in turn give rise to the horizontal flow of ice crystals which forms in Stratiform Cloud often in the shape of ANVIL. Anvil will point in the direction where the Cb flows. Hope that answers your question!

Well the answer he wanted was that the anvil forms when it reaches an area of constant temperature.
That being part of the mature stage of development.
