If I could give 2.5 stars (right in the middle), I would give that because...

This book is USEFUL if... Your idea of "study guide" is a book that throws at you a bunch of questions, exercises, fill-in-the-blanks, critical thinking questions, etc. Prior understanding of Egan is a requirement.

This book will NOT HELP if... You were expecting a "Cliff Notes"-type book that easily explains the principles in this book in easier-to-understand terms. (Although there are some "tips" scattered here and there.) If you don't understand Egan in the first place, I don't think this book will help you understand it more, because the exercises require an understanding of what you have already read.

Now, if there is an ANSWER KEY for this book, I think THAT would be a GREAT study guide!

I purchased this item hoping it might have the chapters clearly outlined. It does not. There are hundreds of questions that allow one to focus on what information should be digested as you read. I will use it in some way. However, I will admit that the workbook is more useful than this "study guide"
