This review is about issues specific to the Kindle edition.

This book contains many internal cross-references ("see page 234") which are useless in the Kindle edition -- they are neither hyperlinked nor is there any way to jump to a numbered page (in fact, Kindle does not support page numbers at all). This is also true of the index. It is of course possible to use free-text search, but that doesn't help when you want to find the defining or most important references to a particular term.

The table of contents *is* correctly hyperlinked, but only at the chapter level. Given that most chapters are over 20 pages long, and several are over 60 pages long, that is not enough detail -- an analytical table of contents would have been much more helpful.

There are also some minor formatting problems, but they are negligeable compared to the above issues.
