I enjoyed reading Jon Bentley's Programming Pearls 1st edition a long time ago. Is the second edition worth buying? Are there significant changes, other than code being written in C/C++?

P.S.: I've seen what the author says, but I wanted to seek opinion from other readers as to what they really thought of it.

See "To Readers of the First Edition," which summarizes the changes in the second edition.

Twelve of the thirteen pieces in the first edition have been edited substantially for this edition, and three new columns have been added.
