I'm continually amazed at how this man is an engineer who can write books even engineering idiots like me can understand. In my opinion, he writes very eloquently, yet understandably. I love his works.

A surprisingly quick read for such potentially heavy subject matter. I felt the first couple of chapters dragged, but once the real world examples started, the pace picked up considerably. Although parts of the book are hopelessly dated (slide rules? primitive computing?), the underlying truths and conclusions are still quite relevant.
