- Luigi’s book contains unique and ingenious features: a fold out guide to symbols for easy reference, an under-reliance on language in the diagrams to allow non-English speakers and those with reading problems to follow designs, a helpline facility, allowing readers to log any problems by interacting with the author and contribute with their own ideas. A Dialog between the readers and author, this has never happened before in a book of this kind.
