Excellent coverage of the subject
I used the first edition in some research and the university library years ago. The second edition is even more comprehensive. I'm glad to add this to my own library.
Lacking detail
This book covers many important navigation systems including GPS. However, I felt like there were some details missing in the first few chapters. Simple things that I was not aware of prior to this book, such as heading 90 degrees due west, were not easy for me to understand. I had never been exposed to this type of lingo. Hence, I would not recommend this book for an undergraduate course.
Excellent book with exhaustive detail
This book contians all the information that anyone could ever need. It also has the best index I have ever seen, making finding the smallest section easy. It does not really cover the basics of each system, but provided you have a basic knowledge then it will build on that. It is up to the reader to decide how much depth they want to go into, this book will take them as far as they could possibly need to go.
