Phenomenally Informative

For a book of this size (just over 200 pgs) it contains a fascinating amount of information on an incredibly interesting subject. The breadth and depth of information covered in the space of so few pages is astounding and yet the author doesn't skimp on details. Should appeal to a wide and educated audience. It's written at a level that neither speaks down to the reader nor trys to overwhelm or impress, but merely inform. Much more could be shared, but I would simply encourage the reader to purchase the book and see for themselves. Outstanding!
