Judging that I can't read most the charts in the free sample on my very large computer and there isn't a way to zoom, I'm going to say that this ebook probably would horribly suck to read on my tablet or phone without zoom capabilities or bare minimum some better quality photos... There so much artifacting and shrinkage you can't read it! Google plz fix
