It is written in such an engaging style that even a reader with only a passing interest in aviation will be gripped, while for those of us with a (slightly) better than average knowledge of the subject will be confronted with plenty of''new' information.
My copy was a classic impulse buy the last time I was in London - at £2 I felt I really couldn't go wrong. I didn't.

Tim,
I agree with everything that you have written about this book. It is well-written in an easy to read style, and it is very informative about the numerous projects undertaken by the British aircraft industry in the post-war period.
All the best,
Bob
Considered a classic account round these parts. I was lucky enough to see a lot of the aircraft mentioned at air shows in the 80s... surprised you'd not read it earlier to be honest.
Cheers,
Pete.
