Description:
My book is quite diifcult to pigeonhole in terms of the audience that might enjoy it. To give potential readers a flavor of what it's about I have posted the first 2 Chapters. Below is chapter 2
Reading Chapters 1 + 2 will give the reader a good understanding of what they have in store in the rest of the book.
