One StarBy Kelly W.Horrible text. Very difficult to focus on. Poorly written1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Egad; Nightmare FodderBy The Lizard KingOh boy. Another book I was coerced into getting for classes; but I regret this one much more than the others. Though the book could use a better cover; it's really in need of an emergency editing. I found myself underlining horrendously incorrect sentences and misspellings while I trudged through the prose. I found it impossible to accept this book as fact with such simple errors littering the text. I really wonder if I somehow managed to get a first draft of the book with regular binding. I read the book for as long as I could stand. Maybe someday I'll flip through and see what I missed.
