If Evaluating Training Programs: The Four Levels is the bones and Training on Trial: How Workplace Learning Must Reinvent Itself to Remain Relevant is the muscles and skin, then Implementing the Four Levels: A Practical Guide for Effective Evaluation of Training Programs is the makeup. If you have read the other two this one is not needed. Pass on this one.

It's always good to keep up on the basics! This covers tried and true ways to evaluate training.

This is the same as the "newer version", although definitely a few good tidbits in here that I don't think were in the newer edition of the book
