This book is very informational and breaks things down into the simples terms possible. It's especially great for anyone just beginning to learn about the community to show them how truly large and encompassing the community is. I considered myself to be someone who knew a lot about the community already, but I have learned about so many terms I was completely unaware of because of this book.
