I am very happy to use this book. I am a research scholar... doing Ph.D in English. (Bharathiyar University). This book is suggested to us for extra reading. I find it immensely useful... especially the second and third chapters.... Why i mention these two... is... even the other chapters are quite good but, i know the contents earlier....
I honestly appreciate the work of the author. The writing is clear and concepts are explained with lots of apt examples..... I cherish it.
