- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5My compliments to the author and the storyteller. This audio book should be given an accolade. That's just how good it is. I learned a lot simply by soaking everything up. The info was great, particularly if you already know a little bit about the issue. Really, you may understand nothing at all about it and still follow along effortlessly.
