    The book is a great summarization and analysis of the book Circling the Sun, and it's a great way to get a better understanding of what the original book actually means and this analysis is pretty thorough. The book is very good and I've found it to be better than I expected, and therefore I recommend it.

    Circling the Sun was a great book and it had a great summary and anaylisis, and have a pretty interesting storyline throughout the entire book. There's a red line and it's written in a way that's easy to understand even for people that do not read very often, like me. I'm fully satisfied with this book.

  • Great detailed analysis

    After reading other summary and analysises by Instaread, I've decided to get my hands on more books he writes. He does such a great job outling key/main points that pertain to the book. The summaries he writes makes it just as entertaining as the acutal book itself. I highly recommend this book to those wanted to understand Circling The Sun better.
