Great summary

I was looking for the original book, which sadly wasn't in audio form, so I got this summary instead. It is an excellent summary and introduced me to a few ideas that I have not been introduced to before. The format is designed in such a way that after it goes through the topics ideas are reinforced through the analysis sections and end sections. Can't wait to read the book its based on.
