Review title: Okay for a basic discussion on composites but not if you want to know how to DIY
Product review: I found this book to be of limited value. Discussion of design is very basic and only helpful as the most basic of an introduction to aircraft design. You will certainly not know how to design an airplane after reading this book. Nor will you gain the insight needed to build with composites. I would only recommend this to an absolute beginner in the field. Even then, I think there is just too little good knowledge to be gain. Perhaps time (& money) would be better spent on the aircraft design books from Chris Heintz, Dan Raymer, or Zeke Smith.
