Dear Clay,

It is definitely worth $ 10 if your purpose by acquiring it, is to learn
something about Hebrew verbs. Vincent DeCaen (he is on the list) has shown
that Driver was a much more original thinker than Waltke/O'Connor portrays
him. While his model as a whole must be rejected, there are great amounts
of insights in his book. If you work with the Hebrew verbal system, this is
a book you *must* have read.
