Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐I ordered this book sent to my Kindle because I needed it “yesterday”. The book itself has information that I needed, but I found it very hard for me to use in that format. I have a difficult time moving back and forth in the Kindle to find or refresh my understanding of various parts. And, the illustrations do not always appear where they would be most helpful. I have no complaint with the author’s work, but the format that I chose is not especially helpful.

⭐This book eventually has some good material, but the first 50 pages or so are about why it’s important to have reports, and why they should be well designed. Okay, the book is “for Dummies”, but give me some credit that I want to create good reports as a prerequisite for wanting a book at all. It gets better, though.

⭐good price, speedy delivery, items as described – all good!

⭐Dummies books are always good. Service was great.

⭐The book is as described and very easy to follow and it was in very good shape. It was shipped very quickly.

⭐Love this, easy to understand

⭐ok book,, easy to read and learn from

⭐I needed a book like this because the original Crystals book I had was about 3 inches thick. It’s easy to read and understand.
