Default A+ cert study book

well im going to be taking the A+ cert soon most likely and i was going to grab a study book just to make sure i know what is on the test. I know the Mike Meyers book is the best, but there are different ones, and different editions of the books. Some may be for old exams, so i just want to get the right one.

So my question is, is this the latest book, if not please link me to the correct one threw amazon.

Amazon.com: Mike Meyers' A+ Certification Passport, Third Edition (Mike Meyers' Certficiation Passport) (9780072263084): Michael Meyers, Scott Jernigan: Books

When are you taking the test, you know they are implementing a new one sometime in August right? Maybe you should wait and take that one since it's not too far away? Well the test isn't, but the books will be...Lex Luther said to expect litt sometime like October.

well i thought the update was next year some time, so i don't want to get caught in the middle (studying for the old exam) so i think i'll wait until after the update to look for a book then. I'll have to do a little googling to find out the exact date. Thanks though
