Bigbusiness,
I've had my copy about 5 years along with other Ross books and have read it (them) again and again. Only thing is, most of the contents are covered by the free trading manual available from TradingEducators website so don't know whether it's worth 170 bucks.
That said, there are things in the book that I haven't seen covered adequately anywhere else (maybe I haven't looked hard enough). The thing that probably made the most difference to my trading was the detailed step by step description of trade management and the continuing assessment of risk:reward that should take place whist actually in a trade.
With regard to Joe Ross's entry methods themselves, they are definitely useful, but only if you don't marry certain markets. i.e. you have to look around lots of different markets looking for the best set-ups. If you specialise in a certain market like the spoos then it's easy to get drawn into trying to force trades.
True enough, as Chump says, a lot of the book is repetitive. But that's kind of the nature of the beast, given that page after page is spent describing first entry and then management of a single trade as each bar prints.
As I see it, it's a trading manual/course describing every step of the trading process. As such, I have always found it a lot more useful than the likes of Murphy et al..
But there you go, different strokes for different folks I guess
