Customer Reviews

Entertaining, at least.

This book was a fun little read...Okay, it passed the time. It could be a little confusing if read in parts, as one's memory may not hold onto names so well and things skip around a little bit. I can't say how factual it was, but I certainly wouldn't ever use it as basis for a scholarly work. The little interjected tokens of personal stories are cute, if not citable. All it all, worth it if you're looking for something to read. A great post-graduation book (those lazy pre-job days go a long way to reminding former students that there is such a thing as recreational reading)
