This book generally has a lot of good information, however I do tend to agree with krdavis255 on many of his/her points that were mentioned. There definitely were full paragraphs (or more) that were repeated in a couple of places. The writing quality was so-so, and the formatting and flow was irritating. I also agree that the best chapters were on Tea Customs and Culture and the Encyclopedia of Tea. The history section was weak. But again, maybe this was due to the poor organization of information. It's unfortunate that the authors didn't use a better editor.
