I'm not taking a position on whether or not the infantilism is appropriate, so whether or not I have read the book is neither here nor there.

The previous commenter characterised the text as needlessly infantile. It seemed clear enough to me that they were referring to the jokes about jelly bean stains. I am confused why you interpreted their challenge as being about some approach to problem solving.

> Its is possible that the approach will help you in understanding other things as well.

This is either such a general statement that it isn't worth saying, or it is direct condescension which I don't appreciate.

Whatever rocks your boat!

Feel free to not read those books! Works fine for me.

Yes, I was talking about the jelly bean stain stuff and the cartoons. I don’t see the point.

(I do also think the format of these books is pretentious and not actually that sound didactically, but that wasn’t what I was referring to when I said “infantilizing”.)
