Review

I really like the author's writing style. It is very clear, generally organized, and succinct. I have used the Konrath text in every edition. I like his approach that presents a more conceptual read with details in Appendices.

I have always liked the writing style, readability, and clarity of the text as a whole.

I really like the book. I think it is one of the best in the market.
