Plz mail this book to me now so I can check for myself.I was referring to the thread title more than the "truthiness" of the subject. As has been pointed out D&Di and the physical book offer related yet distinct features and benefits.
Yes you can build a Shaman with the CB but you don't get fluff, art and non-crunch rules info that you get in the book. At least that's what the copy of PHB2 on my desk shows me.
kthxbye
