If I read the word "manifestation" one more time I am going to shoot this book. This book is awful. The writing so overstuffed. The author tries to discuss a subject but then adds every exception, after he tells you it will be discussed in a later chapter!!! So I have a feeling I will be doing double reading on these subjects! I seriously think this book needs to be edited for clarity and conciseness. In addition, I am also finding the definitions he presents to be too wordy and they tend to not match what all of my other textbooks have said!


Edit! Edit! Edit! Edit!

not suitable for a 3 week course.

The information is laid out in an easy to read way. Though the information was dry and somewhat boring. Filled with a lot of examples and cases.
