I finally received the book in the mail (after two months, but that's cheapest rate for you for shipping hardcover books). I have not started to work through it yet, but my initial impressions after paging through it are that this book is an excellent, well-thought out resource. It's the best one I've encountered specific to Cantonese (and written in English) for learning characters.
[www.edbchinese.hk] is the website for it and is very good. It appears to have most if not all of the material in the book.
Note this is not a tutorial book with exercises, it is a reference and would make a good first reference before consulting something more comprehensive like 廣州話正音字典.
