I had to buy this book as a required text for a class, but I found over the course of the semester that the information was relevant and presented in a user-friendly format. It’s one of the few texts that I still use, although the class is long over. I have pages dog-eared and bookmarked for later use, as the book offers a lot of good ideas. It’s one of those soothing books that makes education less daunting for the newbie.

This is a great book. It helps by teaching you the basics. However, the book is too general and confusing. Most of the people in my class agree, it does not give us a definate answer to anything.
