This is a scamThis was not written nor goes w/collection of Dr Ramani’s books.

This is really misleading!It’s not a proper workbook in my opinion, more like a summary of the actual book with the blank pages.If you’re after the overview of the book by Dr Ramani, then yes.But it is NOT a workbook, you might as well buy a blank notebook cheaper with the actual book.
