The number is only as good as the condition it applies to. Sixteen chapters build stability from what GM actually measures to the criteria a loading condition has to satisfy, with every working calculation shown in numbers.

The language of stability, displacement and hydrostatics, loading discharging and shifting weights, free surface effect, list and heel and the inclining test, trim and longitudinal stability, stability curves and the large angle story, stiff and tender ships and rolling, bulk cargoes and grain and cargo shift, damage stability and watertight integrity, heavy weather and icing, and the stability book as an authority rather than a reference.
