Not as good as the anterior editions.
I own that book two anterior editions.
The first one (1955) set a new paradigm for Classical Mechanics books; for years it was the standard by which other Classical Mechanics books were judged.
The second edition (1980) is even better, but along the same lines of the first one.
Today, after Arnold's book, we have a new paradigm for Classical Mechanics; Goldstein's third edition structure is still, basically, the one of the 1955 book, with some new sections that try to "update" the book.
If you want an up to date Classical Mechanics book, try Saletan.

Analytical mechanics
This famous textbook is really excellent; every physics
student should read and master it

Gold Standard
I just wanted to report that the book was very highly regarded in the mid 1960's (I was in an advanced undergraduate course in mechanics at the time and we were using the second edition then).
So it's been an "acknowledged standard" for about 45 years, not 30. At $12 it's a steal.

Herbert Goldstein's Classical Mechanics
Carefully written thoughtful introduction to Classical Mechanics.
