Great book, should be used by anyone who needs a quick reference when debating an ignorant Wahhabi about such terms as "hand", "eye", "face", and the like in Islamic literature. A classic, and the notes definitely add to its status. If you're struggling with how to apply matters of 'aqida or just want to see where Imam Ibn al-Jawzi stood among the divisions within the Hanbali school, then you should read it!
