Look, you won’t have wasted your time or money reading the book. You can get some insight into his own thought process and struggles.
If you see his profile on the forum, he was among the oldest members. And he did have a pretty long experience with the exam. So there is something to be learnt from him / his journey.
I remember about some years back, a lady candidate who was unhappy with her essay evaluation which was done by me. She had not scored very well in the last in essay and wanted to improve.
She would not believe why her essay would not fetch marks in the commission - though the mistake was a common one which most people figure out after 1 attempt.
When I could not convince her, I shared her copy with Anudeep who had just secured rank 1 and was an enrolled student for the essay. He immediately saw the problem with the essay.
That was a mistake that a lot of people make in their first attempt in essay. They spoke to each other and they turned out to be college batchmates.
The lady did improve her essay score thereafter. On 17 th August I happened to take her one on one session. It was a bit nostalgic. But the lady had changed a lot, was lot grounded and very humble. I just hope she makes it to the IAS this time.

It is a well written and quite resourceful book. I will definitely recommend you to read it.
And I also agree with others that essay writing can't be learnt through books. In fact nothing can help you until you actually practice what you learnt.
The book is definitely NOT A WASTE OF TIME. But you will also have to practice on you own if you hope to clear this exam.
