Finally received this book by Bill Chen and Jerrod Ankenman from Waterstone's for £30 off a publishers price of $30 - didn't know the dollar had got that bad!

That gripe aside i am a whole 14 pages in, mostly taken up by forewords and introductions and i am already scratching my head lol 

Still if it helps improve my game even 10% i think it would be worth the slow trudge through the chapters caused by having to re-read each page 5 times to get even a modicom of understanding of the concepts lol

Hi Rozza

I've merged your new post onto the earlier discussion so that its all in the same place.

I've found the best way to try an read these types of book is to not get bogged down on the first read.  Plough through it, make a note of anything you don't quite grasp and then come back to the tricky bits.  These books need multiple reads to get the best out of them.

I'm still working through my first read - had less time to devote to it in recent days but the content so far is excellent.

Thanks for that - I wasn't sure how to find the original topic thread.
