    Last century an old university lecturer told me ,in answer to my question :- what's the best book on "blah" ? and his reply was very enlightening go the library get a book on "blah", rest the spine on the palm of your hand, where it falls open read those two pages ! If you understand what is written there that book is "a good book for you about Blah"

    in this century i apply that to videos on what ever i am studying up ...........................................

    HTH
    Exactly and if you do not get a good understanding try letting it fall open again a couple of times if after 6 or 8 pages you a working synopsis of the subject matter the book is not worth reading in the first place.
    Never try to tell me it can't be done
