1. 5/5

   Lämplig referens för redan initierade

   Packad med bra exempel som ibland kan innehålla sådant som inte tagits upp ännu eller som inte tas upp alls. Läsaren antas göra egna efterforskningar i relevant dokumentation och/eller har en del förkunskaper. Därför kanske inte den bästa boken för nybörjare. Däremot lämplig som referens och uppslagsbok för icke-nybörjare. Rekommenderas.
