Good concepts, laborious presentation. Very wordy, only showing model diagrams where he didn't need to and skipping over ones that really could have used it. Editing was not good; very frequent typos, which at times made the content virtually impossible to understand.

This book is quite laborious. I do think the information contained is helpful in learning how to model effectively for scope work, but the book could have easily been cut in half. I appreciated the examples as a visual learner and their ties to SySML.

A nice book, but needs a clear mind and concentration to be able to benefit of its comprehensive information
