The shapes stay in your head (and I'm not the greatest visualizer of shapes in the world) but the instant recognition seems near magic to me. I'm only through Chapter 6, but it has already been worth the seven or eight dollars I paid for it.
Funny that you mentioned that book. I bought it months ago and put it away. I stumbled across it yesterday and figured it would do me good to work through it. Thanks for the confirmation.
