From the marketing info at the book's link you provided Stop wasting your time wrestling with incomplete and confusing tutorials.
Were they talking about themselves?

Yes, you are correct. Although, except for a small bug here or there, I had gotten on well with the book, which cost about $26 or something, and was looking forward to where we moved onto bigger apps. I was not looking forward to bigger and more frequent elephant ups.

Hi Brady, thanks for that heads-up; I might have bought that book.
I do note the authors say:Quote: What if I don't like it?
If you're unhappy with the book or content, just reach out to us and we'll give you a full refund. There's no risk.
cheers, Bill

That is great, thanks, Bill, I will be contacting them ASAP. But then I see there are hardly any contenders for Angular 4 tutorial books even for a barrier set this low. I nearly just wrote the cost off and bought another, but the only 1 other I could find used JS to program Angular 4, written in TypeScript and written to be coded for in TypeScript. The appearance of the book was more of a Mad Magazine than a textbook

They're preparing you for what life will be like working with Angular.
Really great stuff at first, followed by confusing assumptions about your environment, and finally total collapse of sanity or usefulness.

And they throw in some npm package version hell as well, not to miss that. But what you say about Angular describes the book to a tee.

NG1 is actually pretty damn good and doesn't have the associated stupidity and hipster tendencies of the newer releases; I just can't say how long Google will continue to support it.

I much prefer Angular 2 & 4 over 1. It's like fully object oriented vs. event driven but procedural. A Rubick's cude snapping into correctness vs a bag of loose Legos. IMHO.
