My older daughter needed this for school (college level courses, she's dual-enrolled in high school and college). She found it very valuable to her beyond the classroom.

I had to buy this book for a college English class and if was good information, but extremely boring. Some of the content could have been a lot more interesting, but it gets the job done.
