A chore to read Apr 25, 2000
By Molly This book contains some very valuable insights toward interpreting various books. Unfortunately, these insights are all presented in the first chapter, and are subsequently beat into the reader's head repeatedly afterwards. The author pulls out every obscure, thirty-letter vocabulary word you can find in Webster's, and some that I couldn't. The most useful part of the book is the Prologue. The Prologue is extremely well-written, and sums up Armstrong's entire argument in about ten pages. I would suggest that potential readers read the Prologue first, skip the Introduction altogether, and take the rest of the book as they may.
