Good book until you reach end of chapter 4 (from the moment when He talks about custom pipes and Directives to onwards). Feels like all the well explained example, explanations are gone suddenly. Maybe were they rushed ? I couldn't stop my self spend a lot of time google to finally understand all the "notions" he was trying to introduce. Explanation were really not clear.

I can still recommend the beginning of the book tho for in-depth understanding of the basics of Angular but don't waste your time after. It's a lot of headaches and time wasted for so "simple" concepts.
