Default Misleading description

Hi there,

I just bought the book and am pretty disappointed about the actual content. I was looking for a book that explains how to implement complex workflows via Visual Studio, using the power of Workflow Foundation framework. I was pretty surprised when I read the short description of this book: It claimed to explain how to use Workflow Foundation 4 (WF4) with SharePoint 2010. Surprised because other sources clearly stated that using WF4 with SP2010 is not really possible as SP2010 is based on .NET3.5 while WF4 uses the .NET4 framework. But ok, I thought I should give it a try.

Now the book just arrived and I do not even find the term WF4 anywhere.
It just contains a lot of SP designer stuff.

Are you kidding me?

Which fool is responsible for that nonsense on the 'About This Title' page?

This is nothing against the book or the authors. It really looks like a helpful one if you want to implement a workflow in SP designer. I'm just very disappointed about that description stuff.

-- A displeased buyer
