Parts of the coverage was complete crap and/or dealt with stuff that was not remotely interesting to me, but other parts were actually really good - which makes the book sort of difficult to rate. In the end I decided to settle on a two star rating, even though I consider some of the recommendations made in the book to be far from 'okay'.
