    If you are like me and want to learn everything about locks or you are a locksmith, someone that is in need of the best information from two of the best minds of today in locks, here is the best deal I have seen in 10 years. There is a good bit of basic lock history in the front of Master Keying by the Numbers. - Dean Nickel, CJIL, CPL

    I agree with Halflock's opinion, excellent information, much of which is not available elsewhere. Note well that the sale prices are only good until 7/1/13. One caveat, the author and publisher make every attempt to restrict sales to bonafide security professionals only. They are not offered for sale to the general public. My 2 cents.
