I personally WANT the edition you have (if you could send me an email on which one it is and where you got it, it'd be appreciated). I'm not musically trained, just self-taught with some intermittent lessons here and there, but I would vote for learning by exercise. I do what I can as far as practicing, and sometimes my practice sessions get cut short. So I want to hit as many keys as possible. So I'd rather hit every key in one pattern in a session, instead of one key in many patterns. And then continue with new patterns the next time.
I know it's important to do both, know your keys AND your patterns, however for myself, I just prefer to hit every key in a session than to hit every pattern (thirds, fourths, broken chords, returning scales, etc. etc.)
