Reviews

Robert Jasiek's [ext] review

Fhayashi: The contents of the book is promising, but the book itself is bad, mainly because of the layout. The book is laid out as a number of problems with nicely detailed answers. Unfortunately, there is no diagram without answers on it - that is, you can't look at the problem and think about it, because the answer is already there. If they can manage to fix the layout for the next printing, I'm sure the book would become much more useful.
