I really enjoyed the book great information but the software is not very user friendly. I think there should have been more information/user guide that came with the software Mac version?

Overall a nicely organized book. Easy to follow and provides a good general template from which to build individualized programs. However an update for Windows 7 is needed. Write a Review
