#eng Good and concise
Never seen such unfinished by the last touch of the author book: typos all over
Never seen such a good and concise introduction into a language.
Contains an excellent linked table of contents, but it is never referred anywhere in the book. Luckily I found it and have several times through it referred to specific points of this excellent book.
The blatant faults of this book need one hour of work and it is perfect as a handbook for person learning the language.
Four stars is just the correct assessment, five after finishing touch would be correct.
