Review: Interesting concept, short and fast

I enjoyed this book despite the inconsistencies.A spaceship on a routine flight encounters an alien ship in distress. The captain and crew attempt a rescue, (after consulting a manual) and contact is made.What happens next is fairly predictable.One thing that annoyed me was the over-simplified and misleading explanations for scientific concepts, such as traveling at light speed and aging.Also, at one point in the book the author uses the words 'ring tone' and calls that an 'ancient' term, and then refers to the 'NSA' as a current organization. You can't have it both ways.Results: Ok. Free. Don't think too hard.
