The theoretical approach which the book is developed on is one of the strengths. How ever, there are some limitations such as: Lack of theoretical framework, use of wage methodology in explaining the subject, not applying a critical approach toward the current literature, not using all the authentic sources, weak editing of the book and not using a good framework for writing the references ant bibliography are the main weaknesses of the book which in turn decreased the validity of the findings and theoretical validity of the book?
