Первая половина книги, может, и не плоха. Но затем авторы углубляются в слишком большие дебри. Советы, преподносимые ими, могут быть полезны очень узкому числу программистов, в основном тем, кто имеет дело со сложными математическими вычислениями. Примеры кода во многих случаях можно было упростить.
