Trying to teach testing skills and judgement - eBook

I read yesterday an interesting ebook on teaching testing skills written by Rikard Edgren.

The ebook can be found on the testhuddle.com site(site registration is required for download):
http://testhuddle.com/resource/trying-to-teach-testing-skills-and-judgement-ebook/

It describes Rikard's efforts on creating courses over 2 years for teaching testing to people that just graduated university.

I have selected from the book a few details that are useful for new testers:
