'Amongst the book's brightest contributions are its directness, explicit coverage of technical materials, and accessible language, without sacrificing accuracy or pedagogical rigor' - Ernesto R. Acevedo-Munoz, University of Colorado; 'The marginalia is incredibly helpful and makes for a very visual and inviting design.' - Alex E. Blazer, Ohio State University
