It's just a reference, I wouldn't view it as teaching material.

Its quite useful to look things up in.

Yep, this is an extended survey of interrelated concepts organized according to increasing complexity.

Similar to textbooks in the organizational principle, but differentiated in substance in that it assumes familiarity with the underlying topics and focuses on the relationships between the concepts rather than the concepts themselves. Good for practitioners I think.
