Betyg & recensioner

2 recensioner, genomsnitt 4.5/5

  1. 5/5 Mårten

    Boken är engagerande och innehållsrik på samma gång, vilken är ganska ovanligt för den här typen av böcker. Lika levande som Cullers bok, men mer omfångsrik och detaljerad. Läses tillsammans med en fyllig antologi.

  2. 4/5 Conny L

    Vederhäftig och bra utformad.Man får en bra inblick i arbetet
    Man blir minst sagt inspirerad till ytterligare studier.
