The first thing I noticed when I received this book was the notice on the cover that this edition is not for sale outside the Indian continent. I'm not sure what changes have been made to the text for this geographic region or if shipping this version to the United States will be copyright infringement. Something others should consider when making a purchase. The rest of the book arrived quickly and in good condition.
This text provides detailed instructions that any average mind can understand and self-educate at their own pace and pace. This book will take you from the basics to the next level if those are your expectations.
