The content is extremely interesting, complete, and you can tell Michael tested everything it writes of.
It's simply the best techincal book I've read so far. What's more this guy should think about writing novels, he has a very good style and manages to keep you interested even on quite dull subject.
The rating is 7 or 8 funny furry things with oversized eyes, but the form allows just for 5.
