[J.A. Simmons V · Rating 1 out of 5]

Very short, barely got into setting up a lab environment; nothing about actually administrating the system, or explaining anything about the system. Last half of the "book" was sales for his other books that are not (currently) on Kindle Unlimited.

Go waste you time somewhere else; this is not the book you are looking for.
