I really like this book
I think is a great book, it takes its time to explain most of things. Other times it magically skips some deductions or it comes to conclusions from nowhere. That's the case with most books though. The book was in impecable state, and it's a joy to read. The pictures and renders are real good if you take into account how old it is.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
