"What is most enjoyable about Handal's writing is its balance of seriously useful information and wickedly irreverent observations. Overall, the information provided is easily accessible and instantly usable. You will be able to start acting on what you've read immediately, without anyone's approval. Best of all, you might even get to enjoy those extra hours of daylight savings time with family and friends this summer!"
