2.0 out of 5 stars Not so much, January 8, 2008
This review is from: Unified Structured Inventive Thinking: How to Invent (Hardcover)
I had hoped to find a resource explaining the fundamentals of SIT, and it appeared that Sickafus's book was the right one to get. Unfortunately I find the book very difficult to read and understand, mainly due to the author's complicated writing style, but also due to the hundreds of spelling errors. I had to look up "in praesenti" thinking it was just another spelling error. The fault lies both with the author and publisher for allowing what appears to be a rough draft to be published. Unfortunately the author and publisher are the same guy in this case.

Page 392 contains this:

"Particles are on and at both ends of the line from toast to information to indicate that they are interrogating the condition of the toast and sending out corresponding information". All I can say is "?".

In total I would say that the author seems more accustomed to writing research papers to be read and reviewed by peers than writing "how-to" books for those just getting started.
