Summary: Still worth the effort
Comment: As with vol I of this set of two, the material here is somewhat dated. However, while there is more to the story then is presented in this text, this text still serves an essential purpose. For example, vol II contains detailed exposition concerning anomalie cancellation and calculation of one (and higher) -loop amplitudes, which is a subject crucial to many recent developments in string theory. Similarly, this volume's expositions on compatification (orbifold, Calabi-Yau, and so forth) and lower dimensional effects will prove both instructive / illuminating for readers wishing to begin similar investigations, or who seek to augment other sources in the literature.
Again, a compelling reason for reading this text is the insights these particular authors provide. For example, the volume's discussions of physical implications from differential / algebraic geometry are more then enough reason to purchase the text.
