As a primer on technical analysis, there is none better. His triple 
screen approach is certainly valid, however his indicators are not 
any better or worse than the common indicators. Be sure to 
get the accompanying study guide. Other basic books:

'Technical Analysis of Stock Trends' by Edwards and Magee
'Technical Analysis of the Futures Markets' by John Murphy
'Options as a Strategic Investment' by Lawrence McMillan
'Computer Analysis of the Futures Market' by LeBeau & Lucas

Of course, all of these stress a technical approach to trading 
decisions.
