    This book is a disappointment

    The author tends to make a single point using a million words. It is frustrating to read this book because you feel the need to filter out all of the inefficient rhetoric in order to acquire any knowledge relating to the subject. The graphics are more than disappointing and, instead of providing clarity, create more confusion and seem to have been thrown together in a few seconds. On top of all this, there are so many typos and grammatical errors in this book, I wonder if anyone proofread the book at all. For myself, a person new to data warehousing, I found some information that is useful for future projects; I only wish that I did not have to develop a headache to learn this new skill.
