   This is one of those books where the author has shown significant improvement. The first few chapters made me frown, but the later chapters were full of pleasant surprises. Unfortunately, there were too many negative reviews, and the author, feeling isolated and impatient, stopped updating. It's fair to say this is one of the better books of this type, only dragged down by the earlier chapters.
