This book is comprehensive with lots of useful information together with charts and diagrams illustrating the development logic and knowledge ideas behind the Chinese lunar calendar. However, while the printed pages show regular numbers, the page-search function on the ebook strangely assumes there is only one page and all sub-pages bear Roman numerals such as I, X, M, C, D, V (actually it shows small letters instead of capital letters) as the sub-page numbers. That means, for example, when you see a page of number 214 mentioned in the table of content and you want to go to that page, you have to enter ccxiv for the search. The page-search function shows only the numerical keypad, and I have managed to change the keyboard to enter the alphabetical letters for the search, but the ebook's page search function just doesn't allow using non-numerical letters as the argument for the search. Thus the reader is coerced to flip the pages sequentially or make a guess on the slide bar to where the page is. Such discrepancy / malfunction ruins everything and defects the purpose of using this book as a quick reference.
