I am pretty sure (based on his other books) that the book is a good / great read. Though the condition of the book was totally un-acceptable. the site stated the book was in very good condition, but when it arrived, the cover was torn and tattered, and several pages were crinkled and not a very attractive cover or an over all appearance. I would send the book back, but the mailing costs would be much more than the book had cost initially.
