        To the point

        This is a short little book that's a fun read to help you better understand the science behind much of brewing. $15 is over priced, and I'm not sure I'd pay that. I got it as a gift and it's definitely worth free, or a bit more if it's ever on sale. Otherwise you can get other books with a lot more useful information for that price.

        Great intro into enzyme activity

        Goes lightly into many technical subjects.

        Nice intro to Brew Science

        If you don't have a Chemistry background this book does a nice job conveying some of the concepts used in brewing. It even has pictures of molecules so you can visualize what an enzyme does. It might not help your brewing much, but it will help your understanding of whats happening and why.
