Full disclosure: This book was written by a former professor of mine. That said, I graduated years ago.
I wasn't expecting to enjoy reading this book as much as I did. It is definitely dense, but it's generally not very dry. The one exception is Chapter 4, which I had a lot of trouble understanding. It was just a little too dense to manage. But that's it; all the rest is perfectly accessible, at least to me. Furthermore, all the different contexts in the different chapters kept the book interesting, even though I was reading it over the course of a month. I'm really glad I took the time to actually read through it, instead of consigning it to textbook oblivion.
