4.0 out of 5 stars The book to buy

To suggest that that the author's knowledge is questionable (or 'nquestionable' as he/she puts it) is laughable. Based on the other reviewer's poor use of English, their struggle with understanding the book is likely due to their intelligence or English proficiency, or both. Sure the book isn't perfect, and it is complex, but to give it one star is ridiculous.
