No. "The Complete FreeBSD" is a different book, much as "Absolute BSD" by
Michael Lucas and "FreeBSD: An Open-Source Operating System for Your Personal
Computer" by Annelise Andersen are different books.
I haven't read any of the the three mentioned above, so make no recommendation.

The FreeBSD Mall sell paper copies on their website at www.freebsdmall.com.
Note that there is soon to be a third edition.
