- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5a bigger font to read it with. The content seems ok, but got sick and tired of trying to read it so gave up. Yes I am old, and wear glasses, but this is the only medium that I have found that won't allow me to enlarge the font. Book OK, Scribd rubbish.
Will persevere with the book. If it intrigues me will buy it from somewhere else
