Customer Reviews

They tried…I guess

This book tries really hard to sound academic but is oddly scattered and difficult to follow. It will touch on or mention key concepts that are supposed to lead into the next thought, but without any explanation of those concepts. They just expect the reader to know what they’re talking about. So then why read it? Who is it for? What is the point? Seems it’s a book written for the authors, and only the authors. Don’t waste your money.
