I love Steve's work and still look forward to any of his presentations but this book was serious let down. Could easily be reduced to 20 pages or so. Highly repetitive.

Very repetitive. Could've been a long article. Some good information, nonetheless. But extremely repetitive in a sense that certain sections were copy and pasted from earlier in the book.
