Aside from the common mistype of "casual" instead of "causal", the book has imprecise wording and some explanations downright wrong. The majority of the book is tedious persuasion that Causal AI is the next big thing, and relevant topics are only superficially touched upon. For casual readers, this book may provide value, but in my case, this was a waste of time. There are much better books on the market on this topic.

Good as an audiobook, nothing too technical and lots of examples. Grabbed it from my library’s digital lending program and at speed up the playback speed to make it interesting enough. Could be good for technical introduction or business people - not deep enough if you are already coding or deep in AI.
