See the book is the best for learning drawing but while reading the ebook it's difficult to know actually the comments are on which drawing because sometimes the drawing is on next page or sometimes on previous page. So following it is difficult and the original book format pages must be provided for this book. I think i wasted my money instead bought psychical copy
