umm...have you actually read this book??:S
Just take the time to read it and then all the answers will be clear :)

I would answer all your questions but they don't appear to be important queries about the book.

Sorry if that sounds mean :(

Sounds like you want us to do your homework! If I'm honest I don't think anyone will take the time to answer all that for you, if it was an idea for a paper then yeh, but not that. Would you answer all that if it was the other way round? Maybe a rule of thumb would be don't expect of people what you wouldn't do yourself. Good luck though.
