Save your money and watch some YouTube videos. There is much telling you what you should know without telling you the answers or where to find them. Frustrating! It needs massively upgrading to be useful.

Great book—very informative. It's also reduced my nerves about undertaking the MODs/DAS courses, which is a winner.
