I have the book, and find it interesting to say the least :) It's an extremely technical approach to yarn construction. I read it when a beginner, and found it pretty incomprehensible. With more experience under my belt today, I can understand what she writes--but have developed much simpler approaches to common issues like how to ply a balanced yarn and how much twist to put in a singles, so I don't refer to it much anymore.
