I really enjoyed this book. It is written in a very accessible style, does not assume that the reader understands all of the "lingo" but introduces it properly and the proceeds to use it as the book progresses. The example hands from actual tournaments were exceedingly helpful to consolidate concepts and ideas. There were a few typographical errors in the text and a few author errors in the "quizzes" (where the provided answer was wrong) but they didn't detract from my overall enjoyment of the book.
