Helpful Score: 1
The prose in this book makes for difficult reading. The advice could be sound, if you can pick it out from the writing style. I had a tough time slogging through it. It made me think of a boring textbook where the writers worked SO hard at sounding intelligent and scholarly that you had no idea what they were saying!

not for me but if you enjoy reading an older prose style this may just be up your alley :)
