I have been using this book during my apprenticeship and though learning shorthand is very difficult and takes absolutely ages, this book helped me so much. It is very clear and the revision exercises are extremely worthwhile. It comes with a CD with all the different passages at different speeds so it helps tremendously when building up speed for tests and for during interviews. I highly recommend this book so helpful and clear.
