I bought the first (CF7), and I am going to buy the CF advanced.. Although, I do use the online docs when I need a reference...
I also have someone doing a bit of work for me, and he finds the book version very useful... he was more of a PHP guy, so a good starting point with CF is CFWACK as opposed to the docs. Sometimes, I find having print very handy... maybe it depends on my mood... and amount of coffee intake. But usually, online docs and google.
