Thanks so much for the kind review - may those countless individuals who were involved in the project also be encouraged by its usefulness! Your crit is a very fair one and has been addressed in the recent reprint (due next month). I have shifted the focus from, 'it's best to write your own studies' to, 'there are plenty of quality resouces out there use (mostly GBC ones, of course!!), but if you can over time start writing your own studies then it's a great thing for these reasons... and here's some help...'. I hope that will take away some of the intimidation factor that the book can cause.
