A bit too unsystematic overall and cursory on the proofs side for my tastes, but a very delectable smorgasbord of elementary partition theory.

I just wish there were more pages .... more examples or more details on the proofs. Each little page takes forever to decipher. I mean it's nice that it's a tiny book but I wanted more of it.

Great introduction to the field of integer partitions. Leaned a lot and was inspired to start a small research project in this area.
