You'll have to be a geek to understand all the little jokes, but that's not a pre-requisite for enjoying the book, you'll just get more out of it if you're from the right background.<p>Unconditionally recommended for all but the most puritan of agèd aunts, as it gets a bit <em>nasty</em> at times. 2013-05-13T19:50:51Z
