2020 QUARANTINE READ: 4.5 stars!

This is what my prof recommended us to read as an assignment. As a non-indexer, I actually find the book understandable without getting confused with some jargons. It's simple and I learned many things from it.

My friend's copy arrived with the cover printed upside-down. NOT A GOOD SIGN.
