Anchell 2000 this second edition is a MAJOR UPDATE from the first edition which came out in 1994. (your next version of your darkroom operating system WILL NOT OPERATE WITH THE PREVIOUS BOOK!:) Stephen G. Anchell apologizes for the fact he flunked chemistry. (no bull) Troop really helped him out in that last book. The first Darkroom Cookbook was good in '94 but The Film Developing Cookbook in '98 was three times better and more necessary. Now I'll say the new Second Darkroom Cookbook has eclipsed the two years previous Film Developing Cookbook. It covers everything. The developments have been fast and furious! :) The Darkroom Cookbook, second edition is what's under my pillow every night! Don't go into rapid eye movement without it! mark G. rabiner :)
