Well, at least I've learned to look at the book better before I start reading it, so at least some good done. Other than that, the book didn't do much for me. The rules are good and presented in pretty concise way, but there were no ‘a-ha' moments for me and some parts of the book were not even applicable to my reading.
Also, I think they could have done a better job at editing it for the ‘updated' edition, as some ideas felt very outdated, I had to remind myself of when it was published sometimes.
Overall, I think it was great work for the time it was published, but I'd like to read something more modern, that reflects the changes in how people read these days.
