Well-suited to bouncing around in, so feel free to chase the answers to your specific areas of curiosity. After exploring a number of my biggest areas of interest, I settled down to read from cover-to-cover and enjoyed the book immensely. It includes extensive Table of Contents, Glossary and Recommended Reading sections; the ToC is hot-linked to that location in the book. Unlike so many eBooks, this version includes the front cover and approximates holding a hardcover better than many eBooks I've been annoyed enough to return for a refund.
