Truly wonderful book at the start, though it does get a bit long and the tempo slows near the middle. It’s hard not to be a little jealous knowing that the author wrote this during her MSc and is a NYT best selling author while still in a PhD program, but that’s really my own psychological hang-ups and doesn’t have anything to do with the book. I didn’t ever think I would say this, but this book has an absolutely masterful author’s preface.
