I'm thinking about buying said ebook for a bit of bedtime reading, what's people's thoughts on it? Worth it?

Cheers

It is a very good book. Gives you a good understanding of the basics of DIR. Add that to "Dress for Success" by Dan Mackay and you have a great 1 - 2 combination.

It's actually required reading for Tech 1 mate. Lots about gasses and the physical side of things, nothing about Ratio Deco Very useful reading IMO.

HTH,

It is a great reference book full of good in depth information, but for bedtime reading I would highly recommend a jazz mag! :D

Serioulsy tho...it aint the kind of book I'd read going to bed mate, bit heavy going but thats just my opinion!
