Nice technical details so far, including the computers aboard the Command and Lunar Modules. 36kB of ROM and 2kB of RAM using "rope memory" produced by the (wait for it...) LOL method (Little Old Ladies) who painstakingly weaved copper wire through iron cores. Also discussed how the optical navigation systems work.

Not really a technical manual. I admit, I didn't look at the reviews that closely, but I was hoping this was pretty much a Haynes manual for the Apollo project. But instead, it's a pretty great history of the program with lots of pics and technical info.
