Will return…poor adaptation to audio book.

The performer (reader) is saying “here” and “this statement” when referring to examples. None are read so the examples are not able to be followed. I understand it wouldn’t be practical to read a table so the pdf makes sense for that but why not just read the statement for the various queries. Its a shame because this book would have been perfect for my needs if they just read the statements. :(
