I will say though that i dont really see this as an introductorylevel book
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
He does describe some basics of the functions and whatnot but its still a good idea to already have some familiarity with the topic before going in

I feel obligated to find something to nitpick about just to balance things out but there isnt anything that really stands out
