  • Good content, poor interactivity

    The content is good but the format is useless. It’s just a pdf but worse, because it does not allow highlighting features.
  • Warning: Not well formatted

    I must be able to highlight and utilize screen reading functionality. I can’t do either with this version. This has everything to do with the ebook formatting, and nothing to do with the content. I will now spend more money and buy the physical copy.
