Took a chance on this and glad I did. The ideas are old but land with surprising force today. Shipping was quick too.
My book club chose this last month. The print is clean and easy on the eyes for long sessions. Not a light read, but far more accessible than I feared. If you're drawn to this subject, don't hesitate.
First purchase from this shop. It rewards patience more than any book I've bought this year. The text itself is dense but rewarding — you get out what you put in. Good, with the caveats above.
Not my usual area but wanted to branch out. The typesetting is comfortable for study, with good margins for notes. Great value for what you get.
Been hunting for a decent copy of this text for ages. The language takes some getting used to, but it becomes part of the charm. Highly recommend to serious students.
