It's a pity, of the 3 books (TAB, Rapple & Tyson),
I found Tyson the most interesting, amusing, etc.
Rapple's was probably the most approachable for your average newbie.
TAB is obviously quite detailed, but not much of a page turner.
Of the 3 Tyson's is probably the one I'd buy again if I needed one.
