Reviews

[Liam Wakefield · Rating 4 out of 5]

Writing a review on a book that's opening chapters explains writing reviews is some what ironic, and could potentially show my level of comprehension. In truth, there is little to write about this book. It's clear, sharp, and precise in providing the key information in the written subject. A perfect book for someone looking to invest time and effort into writing. I enjoyed it, but like most reference books they are filled with pointless pages just to make sure the page count exceeds 100!
A solid 4 stars, and read it in just over an hour.
