تقریبا مفاهیم ef رو خوب‌میگه ولی یک سری نواقص اشکار داره .بیش از حد سر کد نشون دادن بدون توضیح دادن تمرکز کرده .
خیلی از بخش های کتاب عملا بیهوده است و اضافه گویی زیادی داره.بطور کلی ولی میشه گفت برای کسی که تازه میخواد بیاد سمت ef کفایت میکنه ولی خیلی بهتره که بعد این کتاب ، سریچ کنید رو کتاب ef in nutshell
