The subject of the book will never go out of style and will forever be a hot issue amoung both students and teachers. The core issues have been the same since college education came into being. The presentation style is what I have trouble digesting - way too verbose and repetitious. Sometimes it seems that Mr. Wolfe forgot that he had said the same thing before, be it informing of a character's feelings or when describing a situation. Frankly, often I felt like skipping the pages here and there only to stumble upon a repeat of something else. This 'I may have told you but here I am saying it yet again' obscures a relevant topic. It is very clear that Mr. Wolfe does not believe that brevity to tbe the key to a good story. This is not a book that had me interested as many characters are predictable, presented in black and white, thus making getting to the last page a great relief.
