Apology accepted, and thanks to Nick, Mark and the rest of my legal team :) 
Like Nick suggested, if you like that paragraph, you should buy the whole 
book, because it has a lot more good stuff in it (and I'm certainly not 
going to scan or retype all of it for you!)

In general, I find the online help good for providing "how to" advice on 
syntax; but you gain a much better understanding of when and why to do 
things, and how they work, by reading the manuals.  While they are not a 
substitute for complete statistical texts, the manuals have lots of 
examples, brief explanations, and technical notes that help to clear up 
otherwise puzzling things.
