I found this book to be very easy to read. The chapters and subchapters were put together in an organized fashion. The glossary and key terms sections made finding pinpoint material a breeze and I was able to maintain a high B in my class with minimal work (which I am sure most working mother's would appreciate). I did find that the material was slanted in its viewpoint but being overly opinionated myself, I did not mind as I used this to argue my points in class. Overall a very helpful book and an easy read!
