It is a good summary if you don't have time to read the original book or you want to revisit the main ideas. It is short but the main points are all here. I was pleased with the structure and the depth of this summary.

Left wanting more.

It was too concise for me. I was left with the sense that the author skipped a lot more. Perhaps sufficient for others.
