I always go to the book before i read journals. It will always give you a general overview on the subject at hand. As for using it for indepth material, there are some sections that are well detailed but other more focused books will do this much better.

Since I am a History major any history book needs to be a good read. Sentences shouldn't be too long over stuffy, it should be accessible. And this book was. Cannot recommend it highly enough.
