I am learning a lot from this book. I am not a genius, (that's for sure) anything that simplifys things and attempts to explain things from the "ground up" is appreciated. There are a few typos - OK. But there's a unusual problem with the terminology: slices, partitons, file systems. They are not rigorous in explaining this terminology and on pg. 262 what they're saying is incorrect - I think.
