I have read it and would say it was worth the investment.  Not every essay
is fabulous, but a number of them were fascinating.  I used the book
extensively for my thesis and am certain that I will refer back to it again
in the future.  Unfortunately, I can't direct you towards any professional
reviews of it, however.  Just my own humble opinion.
