1.0 out of 5 stars Unreadable and laborious, December 2, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Facility Management (Hardcover)
I had to get this book for a continuing education course and we've been required to read it. I think I'd rather have a root canal. Any day. It's crammed with information with little to no examples to illuminate. The verbiage is needlessly redundant, it's very hard to read and process. And don't get me started about the diagrams - like complicated little spiderwebs that go no-where and teach nothing.
The authors have managed to take an interesting topic and field and turn it into a snoozefest.
