I keep coming back to this one. The typesetting is comfortable for study, with good margins for notes.
Needed this for my research. You can tell why this work has endured. Well worth it.
Long-time student of the esoteric here. The ideas are old but land with surprising force today. A keeper.
My book club chose this last month. I appreciated how the argument builds steadily from first principles. Delivery took a bit longer than quoted. Solid, if not essential.
Perfect companion for my morning study sessions. The print is clean and easy on the eyes for long sessions. Plenty of passages worth underlining; my copy is already full of margin notes. A keeper.
Grabbed this during a weekend order. Some sections stopped me cold in the best way. Delivery took a bit longer than quoted. Good, with the caveats above.
Not my usual area but wanted to branch out. It's become a regular reference in my practice. My only regret is not ordering it sooner.
