Great book - very well written

I had to buy this book as part of a college course curriculum and it was a really nice learning tool. You know, some college books are extremely boring, this one wasn't. It was very easy to read and had some nice real world examples to follow, I thoroughly enjoyed studying it (and I'm not a book worm kind of person).
