It's a useful GUIDE for advanced learners.

The cons are that it may be a bit tedious, slow paced and it could help a lot to have some illustrations for Students that have the visual type of learning.

I completed half of the book, including exercises. It's not bad, the problem is that I don't find learning phrasal verbs this way useful. It is much better to learn them by reading books and looking up in the dictionary those you don't know.
