This book is an affront to pedagogy. I have carefully read and outlined 9 chapters of this book and it is confusing in the extreme. Only a professor who has no regard for students learning the material would use this textbook. The only way I can think to make this presentation of the material more difficult and complex involves fluent Swahili speakers and Navaho Code Talkers. The author of this book loves to skip steps and make easy concepts almost completely incomprehensible.

Ever read that one book that changes your life and stays with you long after you've finished? Yeahhh, this book wasn't one of it. Cocok untuk dibaca ketika kamu gak bisa tidur dan juga bisa untuk mengencangkan otot perut jika dibawa ke kampus dengan jalan kaki setiap hari menggunakan tas ransel.
