The book is heavily and badly highlighted. There are pages with an X in a heavy marker that render these pages useless. I am pretty unhappy with the book it is extremely difficult to read because of these marks and the price I payed was quite high. I would have returned it if it was not for the hazard of dealing with shipping back and fore.
