Personally -- I couldn't get past the first 2 chapters of the book. The notations it introduces are pretty unfamiliar for a newcomer and it quickly becomes really hard to follow. I genuinely would like to hear from somebody who managed to go through the entire book above, and what their main takeaways were (from the chapters that follow the two introductory ones).
The non-technical introduction chapter is pretty easy to follow, and I would recommend reading it.
- lifeonlars 3y agoThe rule of thumb with mathematics books is that either you skip the first 2 chapters and read the whole thing, or you only read those 2.
