This commentary is thorough in its brevity. The nature of Ecclesiastes is in trying to understand the point of the book. I think this can be done with a thorough reading of it; as a complement to the study, Eaton does a fine job in explicating the text. I think his introduction is very good, even though in some areas I would depart from him. The strength of Eaton, in my view, is that he mentions some various views, but does not dwell on them - he stays with the text.
