It was quite easy to follow and understand to the end. Well loaded with rare information and very helpful. Though some typographical errors were spotted in few places, eg Standard 4 (definition page), 1.9 (line 7), 1.16 (line 6), 1.20(Freda principles)Standard 8 (course introduction 6th line)Standard 9, 1.2 ( line 4)
