He's good.  I attended a presentation of his recently and the slides
are also very good, however I am not sure if they are openly available.
[The slides are not, at present, on 
http://conferences.yapceurope.org/ye2010/wiki?node=UploadedSlides
but should appear there when Scott is back in one place assuming he
is OK with the slides being made available...]

That book is good.

Unfortunately, and it pains me to say it, the O'Reilly one is not.
[But then O'Reilly no longer hold the paramount tech book crown like
they did a number of years back]
