He finds it comprehensive but yet written in simple language which is ready to understand. A great buy." "This is a functional book that explains all the concepts very clearly without any waffle. I think it would be best used as a companion to a text book and as a revision aid. The 'Confusion to Avoid' sections at the end of each chapter will be particularly useful."
