    I am an ardent admirer of him, but some recommendations would be inevitably better.
    Hey guys, anyone read the book in here?

    Cheers

    Those would have been special pre-release reviews. (Dust jacket type-stuff). Tony is a member here and you can ask him about the book but I doubt that any general members would have it. Pre-release previews tend to be a small, small audience (maybe 10-20 people) for reviews and hype prior to the book's release.

    For this one I'll wait until it's released and I'll hold judgement until I've read it myself.

    I just finished this book. Great stories but not very technical. I read it very quickly as the stories are very interesting... I'd recommend it.

    Thanks for you interest.... I am going to buy a copy... But I will make sure not to make it as my first readind priority, since it is {As you stated} a more theoritical and more prone to narration ...
    I hope it would be more beneficial than a silly story of moronic boys ,,,,,
