Nice overview and introduction to the topic. Reads more like a series of academic papers on the subject, can get a bit repetitive across chapters because of this though it certainly introduces a well-rounded framework of considerations that should be made and raises questions for further investigation. Far from a "one-stop shop" and a little light on the implementation side - though I don't believe it ever claims to be that sort of book. It also frees the reader up to choose the tools of their choice.
