- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5If you've read anything by Gerber you will know he needlessly raves on and repeats himself in almost every sentence.
Im not normally a fan of summaries but for any of Gerbers books, I am very thankful for them. Find multiple summaries of the emyth and you will get the important details without the self indulgent fluff.
