The way that this book answered its title question was unsatisfying to me. It felt like it was so focused on the data structure of embeddings that it totally glossed over questions about what the structures mean, why they work so well, and emerging research issues in embeddings.

It's like if someone wrote a book called "What is consciousness?" and just provided an annotated list of neurotransmitters. That approach leaves a lot out.
