Timely, relevant and Enjoyable
As the author says in Page 414 "A major reason for writing this book is the need for IT personnel to attain adequate level of understanding.....". This book completely meets the objective. As a practicing IT professional, reading this book was a wonderful experience. It helps professionals like me to gain useful domain knowledge. I hope we have more books like this one, covering other industry sectors.

If your work in anyway touches the trade lifecycle - buy it.
I am just about finished the book and have found it to be an excellent guide, precise and well written. As an 'IT Person' who has steadily moved closer to the business over the years and hence the need to understand how things 'work' it has allowed me to consolidate and confirm my understanding of the key areas. Although I have a number of years experience, particularly from the custodian side, this has allowed me to fully appreciate the full process. The examples that run throughout the book that explains the concepts presented are superb and ensure a firm understanding of the subject area

Excellent Training Material
This book covers all the main areas necessary for newcomers to settlement and other operational areas. The level/depth of description enables a reader to not only become aware of topics, but to understand them.

I thoroughly recommend it.
