Simply and Eloquently Written
I read this book for a work assignment, but enjoyed it far more than I thought I would. The story line and concepts flow so well, that the "required" reading felt more like leisure reading. The story line is so relatable. I read this book in two sittings. Thank you, Tim! Work well done. :)
