The writing is a bit convoluted and many examples are not very interesting. As the approach of this book is via the use of language, the author uses sentences to see how their meaning changes based on the way in which it is viewed. What is missing from the sentences is the context they are in, making much of what is being discussed not very practical. There are references to how others view a particular explanation to a problem, but they are out of context making it difficult to understand what the author is reflecting to. To understand much of the book requires background knowledge about the philosophy of language.
