Customer Reviews

Waffly and unclear
I bought this book to help me with the exam but it is nearly impossible to digest.

The text is unecessarily full of those uncommon english words that make the author think he's being clever. In fact what this achieves is text that has to be read 3 times before you can grasp it.

He also has a nasty habbit of making a statement and then immediately after making an opposite statement which, if you know how the brain works, stops the brain asorbing the info easily.

The text repeats, refers back and builds on topics that are referenced later which means you'll have to read it twice to get it.

The diagrams are also just screen prints from Visio.

I'm giving up on this book, one week before the exam. Off to get something better!
