200 pages of theory to build up to ... SVM's??

TBBH, that's kind of disappointing.

I was hoping to see some sort of insight around deep learning stuff.

I don’t think this kind of insight even exists into deep learning stuff (yet). One of the main reasons people even care about SVMs is that they have nice analytical properties
