I got this book for class so I can't say for sure how it may be for someone who wants to read it out of pure interest.But I would say it definitely matched it's condition description (I got a used copy and it always worries me whether someone's idea of "like new" or "acceptable" matches my idea of it or not).It was very straightforward to read and the examples were well explained with pictures. There was a good amount of information but I don't think it's for someone who already has a good deal of cinema knowledge. This is more introductory of terms and techniques used.
